Frequently asked questions
Can I use this with a self-hosted Invoice Ninja instance?
Yes! You can provide a custom Base URL in the authentication settings to connect to your own server.
Does the AI Agent handle recurring invoices?
Currently, the agent focuses on creating and fetching standard invoices, clients, products, and payments. You can use the Invoice Ninja dashboard for recurring settings.
Can I process credit card payments through this agent?
No, the agent can list and retrieve payment records, but it does not act as a payment gateway to process actual credit card transactions.
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 Invoice Ninja 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.
