Frequently asked questions
Is the OFAC SLS API Key required?
No. The SLS API is publicly accessible. However, providing an API key if you have one ensures higher rate limits and consistent access.
What is the difference between SDN and Non-SDN lists?
The SDN (Specially Designated Nationals) list contains individuals and entities whose assets are blocked. Non-SDN lists contain entities subject to other sanctions, such as sector-specific or prohibited accounts.
Can I see aliases for a specific person?
Yes! Use the get_entity_details tool with the specific Entity ID. The agent will return the full profile, including all known aliases, addresses, and identifying information.
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 OFAC Sanctions Service 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.
