Frequently asked questions
How do I get an ExhibitDay API Key?
Log in to your ExhibitDay account, navigate to Settings > API Integration, and you can generate or retrieve your unique REST API Key from there. API access is typically available on professional and higher plans.
Does the integration show real-time budget status?
Yes, you can use the get_event_budget_summary tool to retrieve high-level financial data, including total estimated expenses compared to actual logged costs for a specific show.
Can the agent track material shipments?
Yes, you can use the list_booth_shipments tool to retrieve tracking numbers, carrier names, and current delivery statuses for all booth materials associated with your events.
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.
