Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Lead and a Contact in Zendesk Sell?
Leads represent potential interest but are not yet qualified. Contacts are qualified individuals or organizations that can be associated with sales deals.
Can I associate a deal with a contact via the agent?
Yes, when using the create_sales_deal tool, you must provide a contact_id to link the new opportunity to an existing person or company.
How do I update the status of an existing deal?
Use the update_existing_deal tool with the unique deal ID and a JSON object containing the new status (e.g., 'Won', 'Lost', or a specific pipeline stage).
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.
