FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I apply changes to my Tyk Gateway after updating a policy?

You can use the hot_reload tool. This forces the Tyk Gateway to reload its configuration and API definitions, ensuring all updates are live without a full restart.

Can I list all my existing API definitions from the Dashboard?

Yes! Use the list_apis tool. It returns a paginated list of all API definitions. You can also filter by name using the optional search string.

Is it possible to retrieve the details of a specific API key?

Absolutely. Use the get_key tool with the specific Key ID. The agent will return the session object, including access rights and rate limit configurations.

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.
