Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Affinda API Key?
Log in to Affinda, click on your profile avatar, and go to Settings > API Keys. You can generate a new token there. Remember to copy it immediately, as it is only shown once.
What document types are supported?
Affinda supports dozens of specialized models including Resumes, Invoices, Receipts, Passports, Driver Licenses, and Purchase Orders. Use the list_document_types tool to see the full list for your account.
Can I parse a document via a public URL?
Yes! The create_document tool accepts a url parameter. Simply provide the direct link to the PDF or image, and Affinda will retrieve and parse it automatically.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
