They ask their agent to use `list_picks` for that specific event, quickly summarizing whether 70% of picks favored one outcome over another. ### Identifying High-Value Fans An esports team wants to reward their top supporters. They run a query using `get_fan_profile` for the last month's participants, identifying who has submitted the most picks and showing them which rewards they qualify for. ### Pre-Launch Content Planning A content manager needs to know what interactive questions are available before a new season starts. They call `list_questions` and then use `get_question` on promising ones to check the setup details. ### Verifying Access for Integrations A developer needs to confirm that their external system has proper permissions to pull data. They execute the `get_me` tool first, confirming their identity and authorized scope before running any other reports. ## Benefits - Understand audience predictions instantly. Instead of manually checking sheets, you call `list_picks` to see the raw answers fans gave for a question. - Build your own database using zero-party data. Use `get_fan_profile` or `list_fans` to pull specific fan histories and segment them by participation type. - Stay updated on campaign status. You can check the current leaderboard standings with `get_leaderboard` without needing a dashboard refresh, keeping your reporting live. - Manage rewards program data easily. Need to know if a prize is still available? Use `list_rewards` and then `get_reward_details` for confirmation. - Coordinate content faster. Check what questions are active using `list_questions`, ensuring your next piece of content fits current fan interest. ## How It Works The bottom line is you talk to your AI client, and it handles all the data retrieval from FanPower for you. 1. First, subscribe to this MCP and provide your FanPower (PickUp) API Key. 2. Then, connect your preferred AI client—like Claude or Cursor—to Vinkius using the credentials. 3. Finally, start asking your agent questions like, 'Show me the top 10 fans on the leaderboard,' and get real-time data back. ## Frequently Asked Questions **How do I use `list_events` with FanPower (PickUp)?** You run `list_events` to see which sports or esports events have active interactive content. This gives you the IDs needed for all subsequent detail lookups, like using an ID in `get_event_details`. **Can I track individual fan activity with `get_fan_profile`?** Yes. `get_fan_profile` pulls a comprehensive record of that single user's participation history across all connected events and questions. **What is the difference between `list_picks` and `get_pick_details`?** `list_picks` gives you a bulk list of answers for many fans. Use `get_pick_details` when you need deep, granular information about one specific answer or prediction. **Do I need to use `get_me` before running other tools?** It's best practice. Running `get_me` confirms your API user identity and authorized access levels first, ensuring the agent has permission to pull data on subsequent calls. **How do I check my current permissions after running `get_me`?** The `get_me` tool returns your API credentials and authorized scopes. Check the returned payload details to confirm if you have read or write access for specific functions, like reward management or fan data segmentation. **What happens when I use `list_questions` if there are thousands of records?** The API supports pagination. If the results exceed a single page limit, you must pass a cursor or page number to fetch all available questions. Be mindful of rate limits and wait 60 seconds before retrying large data pulls. **How do I link a specific question ID using `get_question` back to an event?** The `get_question` endpoint includes the associated Event ID within its metadata. You use this returned identifier to cross-reference with the results of `list_events`, ensuring your analysis has perfect contextual linking. **If I run `get_reward_details` with a non-existent reward ID, what should I expect?** You will receive a 404 Not Found status code. This means the provided reward ID doesn't match any active record in the system. Always validate IDs by first running `list_rewards` to verify existence. **How do I obtain my FanPower (PickUp) API Key?** You can request an API Key from your account manager at PickUp or through their developer portal at wiki.playpickup.com. **Can I see the results of individual fan predictions?** Yes! The `list_picks` and `get_pick_details` tools allow you to retrieve individual answers submitted by fans for any interactive content. **Is it possible to monitor the fan leaderboard?** Absolutely. Use the `get_leaderboard` tool to see the top-performing fans based on their participation and prediction accuracy.
