Frequently asked questions
Can I merge multiple PDF files into one?
Yes. Use start_pdf_task with task type 'merge', then upload each PDF with upload_pdf_by_url, and finally call process_pdf_task to execute. Use get_pdf_download_link to retrieve the merged result.
Does iLovePDF require two credentials?
Yes. iLovePDF uses a Public Key and Secret Key pair. The server exchanges these for a JWT token automatically via api.ilovepdf.com/v1. No manual token management required.
Can I track the status of a PDF processing task?
Yes. Use get_task_status with the task ID to check progress. Use list_pdf_tasks to see all tasks with their current status (pending, processing, completed, failed).
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 iLovePDF 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.
