Frequently asked questions
How do I get an API Key for Gelato?
Log in to your Gelato dashboard, navigate to Developers > API keys, and you can generate a new production or test key there.
What is the difference between an Order ID and a Reference ID?
The Order ID is generated by Gelato, while the Reference ID is your own internal identifier passed during order creation to map the records.
Can I cancel an order via the agent?
Yes, use the 'cancel_print_order' tool. Note that cancellation is only possible if the order status is still 'created' and production hasn't started.
How do I find the correct product UID?
Use the 'list_catalog_products' tool to browse available items. The agent will return the unique 'productUid' needed for order creation.
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 Gelato 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.
