Frequently asked questions
Can I see who downloaded a specific file via AI?
Yes! Use the list_activity_history tool. Your agent will retrieve the audit logs, which you can filter to find download events for a particular file or user.
How do I create a new folder in my secure storage?
Use the create_folder action. Provide the path where you want the new directory to be created (e.g., '/projects/2024') and the agent will register it in Files.com instantly.
Is it possible to list all users in my Files.com instance via AI?
Absolutely. Use the list_users query. The agent will retrieve the complete directory of users configured for your company's instance.
How does AutoGen connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCP tool adapter and assign it to one or more agents in the group chat. AutoGen agents can then call Files.com tools during their conversation turns.
Can different agents have different MCP tool access?
Yes. AutoGen's role-based architecture lets you assign specific MCP tools to specific agents, so a querying agent has different capabilities than a reviewing agent.
Does AutoGen support human approval for tool calls?
Yes. Configure human-in-the-loop mode so agents pause and request approval before executing sensitive MCP tool calls.
