Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the verified email for a prospect by their LinkedIn URL?
Yes! Use the enrich_person tool. Provide the LinkedIn URL, and your agent will respond with complete metadata, including firmographics and waterfall-verified email addresses in seconds.
How do I find my Persana AI Key?
Log in to your Persana AI dashboard, navigate to Settings > API Keys, and you will find your unique secret token there.
What are 'Intent Signals'?
Intent signals are real-time alerts about key account activities, such as a company raising a new funding round or a decision-maker starting a new role, allowing for perfectly timed outreach.
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.
