Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Foursquare API Key?
Log in to the Foursquare Developer Console, create a Project, and you will find your API Key there. Copy and paste it into the field below.
Can the agent search for places near me?
Yes. Use the search_places tool providing the ll (latitude, longitude) or near (city name) parameters. Your agent will return matching venues instantly.
Is it possible to retrieve venue photos via the agent?
Yes. The get_place_photos tool allows your agent to fetch images for any venue by providing its Foursquare Place ID, helping you visualize the location.
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 Foursquare Alternative 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?
