Frequently asked questions
Do I need an API key to use TED?
No! The TED Search API allows anonymous access for basic queries. An API key only increases your rate limits for high-volume usage. You can start searching tenders immediately without any credentials. If you need higher throughput, get a free key at developer.ted.europa.eu.
How can I find IT contracts over 500K EUR in Germany?
Combine tools: use search_by_cpv with code 72000000 (IT services) or search_by_country with code DE, then ask your agent to filter by value. Or use search_by_value with min_value 500000 and max_value 10000000. Your agent cross-references the results to show only German IT contracts above your threshold.
Is TED data limited to EU countries only?
TED primarily covers the 27 EU member states, but it also includes notices from EEA countries (Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein), EU candidate countries, and some international organizations. All tools return data across this full scope. The search_by_country tool supports ISO codes for all covered territories.
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.
