Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the latest comments for a specific asset by its ID?
Yes! Use the list_comments tool with the Asset ID. Your agent will respond with complete metadata for the conversation thread, including timestamps and author details in seconds.
How do I find my Pics.io Personal Access Token?
Log in to Pics.io, navigate to Account Settings > Integrations, and look for the 'Personal Access Token' section to generate your unique secret key.
Can I search for assets across all collections?
Absolutely. Use the search_assets tool with your query. The agent will return all matching files from your entire DAM, regardless of which collection they reside in.
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.
