Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Applied Epic API credentials?
Register your application in the Applied Dev Center to receive a Client ID and Client Secret. You will also need your Enterprise ID and Epic Database Name.
What is the Database Name?
The Database Name is the internal name of your Applied Epic database. You can find this information in your Epic platform settings or by contacting your agency's system administrator.
Can I see document attachments?
Yes, the list_attachments tool allows you to find documents and files linked to clients and policies, though the content itself remains secured in your Epic platform.
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.
