Tools Integration
Learn how to integrate and manage tools in the Canvas feature of TIXAE Agents.
The Tools Integration feature allows you to connect external APIs or webhooks directly to nodes. This enables your AI agents to execute tasks, fetch data, or interact with third-party services.
Adding Tools
- Open the Tools tab in the node settings.
- Click Add Tool to configure a new tool.
- Enter the following:
- Tool Name: A unique name for the tool.
- Server URL: The endpoint of the API/webhook.
- Request Method: Choose from
GET
,POST
, etc. - Variables: Define input variables or use existing ones.
Adding Tools via Text Editor
Tools can also be selected directly in the Text Editor using the {
shortcut:
- Open the Text Editor in the node’s settings.
- Type
{
to access a dropdown of available tools. - Select the tool you wish to use, and it will be added to the editor.
Testing Tools
- Use the built-in Test Tool feature to verify the integration works as expected.
- Generate the tool’s schema using the AI assistant for faster setup.
Best Practices
- Use descriptive names for tools to simplify debugging.
- Test each tool thoroughly before deploying the flow.
- Leverage AI schema generation to speed up configuration.
Tool response
We highly recommend giving the AI a detailed human readable JSON response for the tool result, not providing that will make the AI struggle to understand what is going on, thus will hallucinate more.
