Frequently asked questions
Can I see which browsers my visitors are using?
Yes. Use the get_stats_page tool with the 'browsers' category to see a breakdown of visitor browser statistics for your chosen date range.
How do I export all my analytics data for backup?
You can start a background export using start_export. Once processed, use get_export to check the status and download_export to retrieve the file.
Is it possible to track custom events from my server code?
Absolutely. The count_hits tool allows you to send pageviews or custom events directly to GoatCounter from any backend or middleware.
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.
