Frequently asked questions
How do I find my BigCommerce API credentials?
Log in to your BigCommerce admin, navigate to Settings > API Accounts, and create a new V2/V3 API account to get your token, hash, and client ID.
Does it support both V2 and V3 APIs?
Yes! The server automatically routes requests to the correct endpoint (V3 for products/customers, V2 for orders) to ensure high-fidelity data access.
Where do I find my Store Hash?
Your store hash is the unique identifier in your BigCommerce API URL (e.g., 'xyz123' in api.bigcommerce.com/stores/xyz123/v3/).
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
