Frequently asked questions
Can I create a bot to send automated messages in a channel?
Yes! You can use the create_bot tool to register a new bot and then use send_bot_message to trigger automated interactions within your chat channels.
How do I handle disruptive users who violate community rules?
The server provides several moderation tools: mute_user to silence them, block_user to prevent interaction, and ban_user to remove them from channels entirely.
Is it possible to manage large-scale public chat rooms?
Absolutely. Use create_open_channel to build public channels that support millions of users, and list_open_channels to keep track of your active public environments.
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 Sendbird 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.
