Frequently asked questions
Can my agent create an internal note instead of replying to the customer in Groove?
Yes. When using the 'create_message' tool, you can specify that the message is an internal note. The agent will then post it privately within the ticket flawlessly, visible only to your team.
How do I update the status of a ticket to 'closed' via chat?
You can use the 'update_ticket_state' tool. Provide the Ticket Number and set the state parameter to 'closed'. Your agent will then organize your inbox by resolving the ticket programmatically flawlessy.
Can I list all support agents to check who is assigned to a ticket through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'list_agents' tool. Your agent will retrieve a full list of support staff, allowing you to audit assignments or identify the primary owner of any customer conversation natively.
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.
