Before you connect
Questions about Vonage.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can the Vonage MCP send WhatsApp messages?
Yes, you can send WhatsApp messages through your AI agent using the Vonage Messages API. This allows you to reach customers on a platform they already use every day.
How do I use Vonage MCP for 2FA?
You can use it to start identity verification by sending a code to a phone number and then checking the code the user provides. It makes securing your user accounts much faster.
Can I check my balance with Vonage MCP?
Yes, your agent can check your real-time credit balance at any time. This helps you stay on top of your spending without needing to log into the Vonage dashboard.
Does Vonage MCP support international SMS?
It does. You can use it to check the specific pricing for any country and then send outbound messages to those regions directly through your chat.
How do I manage my virtual numbers via the Connector?
You can use your agent to list all the virtual numbers rented on your account and update the inbound webhooks for them. It's a much faster way to manage your communication fleet.
Can I update webhooks for my numbers?
Yes, you can update the inbound SMS callback URL for any of your virtual numbers using a simple chat command. This is great for quickly changing where your data is sent.
Can I send WhatsApp messages using this server?
Yes. The send_whatsapp_message capability allows you to send outbound WhatsApp messages through the Vonage Messages API. You'll need a verified WhatsApp Business Number configured in your Vonage account as the sender.
How do I implement two-factor authentication (2FA)?
You can use the start_verification capability to send an OTP code to a user's phone. Once the user receives the code, use check_verification_code with the request_id to validate it. Your agent can handle the entire flow through a single conversation.
Can I check how much sending an SMS will cost me?
Absolutely. Use the get_country_pricing capability and provide the ISO country code (e.g., 'US' or 'GB'). Your agent will return the outbound SMS pricing for that region, helping you estimate costs before sending.
