Frequently asked questions
Can I send emails through my shared inbox using the AI agent?
Yes. The send_email tool sends an outgoing email through any connected mailbox. Provide the mailbox ID, recipient email, subject, and body (HTML or plain text). Use list_mailboxes to see all available shared inboxes and their IDs.
Can I view the full conversation history for a customer thread?
Yes. Use list_conversations with a mailbox ID to browse all threads, then call get_conversation_details with the conversation ID to retrieve the complete message history including sender, timestamp, and content for each message.
Does Helpwise require two separate credentials?
Yes. Helpwise uses HTTP Basic Authentication with an API Key and an API Secret. Both are generated in your Helpwise account under Settings > API. The credentials are Base64-encoded and sent in the Authorization header as Basic base64(apiKey:apiSecret).
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Helpwise MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
