Frequently asked questions
Can I create a certificate and send it to someone in one workflow?
Yes! First use create_credential with the recipient details and template ID, then issue_credential to make it official, and finally send_credential to deliver it via email.
How do I find the right template ID to use when creating a credential?
Use the list_credential_templates tool to browse all available templates. Each template includes its ID, name, and description. Copy the ID and use it in the create_credential tool.
Can I search for a credential by the recipient's email address?
Absolutely. Use the search_credentials tool and enter the recipient's email as the query. It will return all credentials matching that email address.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Certifier tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
