Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically send an email using a SendGrid dynamic template?
Yes! Use the send_email tool. Provide the destination email and the Template ID, and your agent will deliver the message via SendGrid's infrastructure instantly.
How do I check the global email statistics for my account?
Simply ask the agent to run the get_email_stats action. Provide a start date, and it will retrieve aggregate metrics including requests, delivered, opens, and clicks.
How do I find my SendGrid API Key?
Log in to your SendGrid dashboard, navigate to Settings > API Keys, and click 'Create API Key' to generate your unique secret key (SG.xxx).
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
