Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Zoho Organization ID?
Your Organization ID is visible in the top right corner of your Zoho Inventory dashboard or under 'Settings' > 'Organization Profile'.
Which Zoho regions are supported by this integration?
We support all major Zoho data centers: US, EU, IN, AU, and CA. Ensure you select the region where your account was created.
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.
