The Call API tool enables a ReadiAI Agent to invoke an external API using a preconfigured API callout. This tool allows agents to fetch or send data to third-party systems, making it possible to integrate ReadiNow with external services during conversations.

Adding the tool to an Agent

To add the Evaluate calculation tool to a ReadiAI Agent:

  1. Open the Agent Builder.
  2. From the left-hand menu, go to the Tools section.
  3. Click Add Tool.
  4. Select and click Evaluate calculation from the list of available tool types. The Configure 'Evaluate calculation' tool dialog will appear.

Configuring the tool

Follow these steps to complete the configuration:

  1. Select API Callout
    • Choose a predefined API callout from the dropdown list.  See to how to create API Callouts.
    • Once configured, the agent can invoke any of the selected API endpoints in response to user prompts. Each endpoint defined in the API callout becomes available for use, enabling the agent to interact dynamically with external systems.
    • Required input parameters are automatically identified and filled using either user-provided inputs or relevant context from the conversation.
