Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Harmonic API Key?
Log in to your Harmonic account, go to the Console, and navigate to the API section. You will be able to generate and copy your unique apikey from there.
What happens if a company is not found in the database?
If a company is not found, Harmonic will return a 201 Enrichment Triggered status. This means a background update has been queued. You can check the status later using the get_enrichment_status tool.
Can I search for companies based on specific criteria?
Yes! Use the search_startups tool. You can provide a JSON string with filters like headcount, location, or industry to find companies that match your investment or sales criteria.
Is the integration secure?
Absolutely. The integration only accesses your data through your unique API key. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
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 Harmonic 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.
