Frequently asked questions
How do I find my AppFollow API Token?
You can find your API token in your AppFollow account settings under the API or Integrations section.
What is an 'extId' in AppFollow?
The extId is the external ID of the app in the store. For iOS apps, it's the numeric Apple ID. For Google Play apps, it's the bundle name (e.g., com.example.app).
Does this integration support semantic tags?
Yes, you can use the get_reviews_semantic tool to retrieve reviews categorized by their content type, such as 'Bug', 'Feature Request', or 'Pricing'.
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.
