Frequently asked questions
How do I get an API Key for Gingr?
Log in to Gingr, navigate to Reports & More > Users, edit your user, and look for the 'API Keys' section to generate or copy your key.
Can I create new reservations via the agent?
No, the current Gingr Public API is read-only. This integration is designed for safely retrieving and auditing your existing data.
How do I find my Location ID?
Use the 'list_business_locations' tool. The agent will return all configured locations in your app along with their unique IDs.
Is the Digital Whiteboard data live?
Yes, all data retrieved through the 'get_digital_whiteboard' tool is fetched directly from the Gingr API, reflecting the current state of your facility.
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.
