Frequently asked questions
How do I get an API Key for Freshteam?
Log in to your Freshteam account, click on your Profile Icon in the top right corner, select 'API Settings', and copy 'Your API Key'.
What is my 'Domain prefix'?
Your domain prefix is the first part of your Freshteam URL (e.g. if your URL is 'acme.freshteam.com', the prefix is 'acme').
Can I see all applicants for a specific job?
Yes! First use the 'list_job_postings' tool to get the Job ID, then use 'list_job_applicants' with that ID to see everyone who applied.
Is it possible to add a new employee via the agent?
Yes, use the 'create_employee_record' tool. Provide the first name, last name, and official email to instantly add them to your HRIS directory.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
