Frequently asked questions
How do I get my BILL Developer Key?
Log in to your BILL account as an administrator at app.bill.com. Navigate to Settings → Sync & Integrations → Manage Developer Keys. Click Generate developer key, accept the Terms of Service, and click Generate key. You will also find your Organization ID (starts with '008') on this same page. Copy both values and paste them into the configuration below.
Can my AI agent approve invoices and trigger payment runs?
Yes. Your AI agent can list pending invoices, review line-item details, and update approval statuses — all through natural conversation. It follows the same approval workflow rules configured in your BILL account, so no invoice gets paid without proper authorization. Payment operations respect your existing role-based permissions.
How do I quickly check which invoices are overdue during a financial review?
Just ask your AI agent 'Show me all overdue invoices.' It pulls your invoice list filtered by past-due status, showing vendor name, amount, due date, and days overdue — giving you actionable data in seconds without generating reports or exporting spreadsheets.
Can multiple team members use this with different permission levels?
Yes. BILL supports up to four developer keys per account. Each key inherits the permissions of the user who generated it. Finance managers can have full read-write access while auditors operate in read-only mode — ideal for growing companies, accounting firms, and multi-entity organizations.
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.
