Frequently asked questions
How do I get an OpenAQ API Key?
Visit OpenAQ Platform, create a free account, and generate your API key from the dashboard. Free tier includes 1,000 requests/hour.
What air quality parameters can I monitor?
PM2.5, PM10, O3 (ozone), NO2, SO2, CO, BC (black carbon), and more. Use get_parameters to see the full list with units and classifications.
Can I get historical air quality data?
Yes! Use get_measurements with date_from and date_to parameters in ISO 8601 format to retrieve time-series data for any location and parameter.
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 OpenAQ 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.
