Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Poplar Access Token?
Log in to your Poplar account and navigate to the API Settings or Developer section. You will find your Access Token there. Use a Test Token for development and a Production Token for live mailings.
Can I standardize non-US addresses?
No, Poplar's address standardization service is specifically designed for US addresses only. For international mailing, ensure your addresses are pre-formatted correctly.
How can I check if a mailer has been delivered?
Use the get_mailer_status tool with the unique mailer ID. It will return the current status, including production phases and the final USPS delivery confirmation when available.
Is the integration secure for customer addresses?
Absolutely. The integration uses official Poplar Bearer tokens over HTTPS. Your credentials and customer data are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
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.
