Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Harvest Access Token and Account ID?
Go to the Harvest Developers site (id.getharvest.com), navigate to Personal Access Tokens, and create a new token. You will find both the token and the Account ID listed there.
Can I see time entries for a specific period?
Yes! Use the list_time_entries tool and provide the from and to dates in YYYY-MM-DD format to retrieve records for that timeframe.
Is it possible to create invoices through this integration?
Yes, you can use the create_invoice tool by providing a client_id and an optional subject to generate a new invoice draft in your Harvest account.
Is the integration secure for managing financial data?
Absolutely. The integration uses official Harvest API tokens over HTTPS. 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 Harvest 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.
