Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Cognito Forms API Key?
Log in to your account, navigate to Organization Settings > API Tokens, and generate a new token for the REST API.
Can I retrieve the schema for a form via AI?
Yes! The get_form_schema tool retrieves the complete JSON definition of your form, including field types and validation rules.
How do I create a new entry programmatically?
Use the create_entry tool and provide a JSON string containing the data for the fields defined in your form's schema.
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.
