Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the details for a specific order by its ID?
Yes! Use the get_order tool with the Order ID. Your agent will respond with complete metadata for the record, including customer information, items, and status in seconds.
How do I find my Order Desk Store ID and API Key?
Log in to your Order Desk store, navigate to Store Settings > API, and you will find your unique Store ID and generate your secret API key there.
Can I update inventory levels using the AI?
Absolutely. Use the update_inventory tool. Provide the Inventory Item ID and the new stock quantity, and the agent will sync the update to Order Desk immediately.
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 Order Desk MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
