Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| get_accountA | Returns the current Synder Importer account: email, name, status, subscription, and connected-company count. Call this first to verify the IMPORTER_API_TOKEN is valid. |
| list_companiesA | Lists all accounting companies connected to the Importer account (QuickBooks Online via 'intuit', Xero via 'xero'). Use the returned 'id' as companyId for downstream tools. |
| get_settingsA | Returns per-company import settings (dateFormat, document-number behavior, product/account auto-creation, duplicate-skip). Check dateFormat before importing — CSV date columns must match. |
| update_settingsA | Updates per-company import settings. Pass only the fields you want to change inside 'settings' (e.g. { dateFormat: 'dd/MM/yyyy' }). Fetch current values with get_settings first so you don't clobber unrelated fields. Returns the updated settings. |
| list_entitiesA | Lists importable entity types for a company (Invoice, Bill, JournalEntry, Customer, Vendor, etc.). Use the returned 'name' as entityName for get_fields and import tools. |
| get_fieldsA | Returns the field schema for an entity in a company: every field with its type, required flag, alternativeTitles, and predefinedValues. Use to build or verify a mapping before running an import. |
| list_mappingsA | Lists field mappings saved for a company. Each mapping is reusable across imports of the same entity type. |
| create_mappingA | Creates a new field mapping for an entity (e.g. 'Journal Entry', 'Bill', 'Invoice'). Look up valid target fields with get_fields first. Returns the created mapping including its id. |
| update_mappingA | Replaces an existing mapping in full. Fetch the current mapping with list_mappings first and send the whole desired shape — this is a PUT, not a patch. Returns the updated mapping. |
| delete_mappingA | Deletes a saved mapping. Irreversible. Imports that referenced this mapping keep their historical record but new imports can no longer pick it. |
| list_importsA | Lists recent imports for a company with status and timestamps. Use to find an importId for status / results / revert / cancel. |
| get_import_statusA | Returns a single import's current status and summary (total / succeeded / failed / warnings). Status lifecycle: SCHEDULED → IN_PROGRESS → FINISHED | FINISHED_WITH_WARNINGS | FAILED | CANCELED. FINISHED can transition to REVERTING → REVERTED. |
| get_import_resultsA | Returns per-row results for a finished import. Filter by 'type' (INFO / WARNING / ERROR) to surface only failures. Paginated — defaults to 20 rows per page, max 100. |
| execute_importA | Uploads a CSV/XLSX file and starts an import using an existing mapping. The MCP server reads the file from disk — pass an absolute path. Returns the created import object including importId. Status starts as SCHEDULED — poll get_import_status or use wait_for_import. Limits: .csv/.xlsx/.xls only, 50MB max. |
| auto_importA | Uploads a file and asks the server to auto-map columns to the target entity. Set dryRun=true to get the proposed mapping back without creating an import — useful for showing the user what will happen and asking 'does this look right?' before committing. Set dryRun=false (default) to auto-map and import in one call. |
| cancel_importA | Cancels a SCHEDULED or IN_PROGRESS import. Already-imported rows are NOT rolled back — use revert_import for that. Returns the updated import status. |
| revert_importA | Reverts a FINISHED or FINISHED_WITH_WARNINGS import — deletes the QuickBooks/Xero entries the import created, using their live SyncTokens. Status transitions FINISHED → REVERTING → REVERTED. Confirm with the user before calling — irreversible from their perspective. |
| wait_for_importA | Polls get_import_status until the import reaches a terminal state (FINISHED, FINISHED_WITH_WARNINGS, FAILED, CANCELED, REVERTED). Exponential backoff (2s → 1.5× → cap 30s). Default timeout 600s — if exceeded, returns { status: 'POLLING', importId, lastSeen } so the LLM can re-call. Includes a per-type result count summary on terminal states (INFO / WARNING / ERROR; null if the server didn't return totals). |
| import_csvA | Happy-path CSV/XLSX importer. Two-step: first call (without confirmed) auto-resolves the company, uploads the file, and returns the server's proposed mapping plus any missingRequired fields — show this to the user. Re-call with confirmed=true (and the same filePath) to run the real import and poll until it terminates. Returns { stage: 'DRY_RUN' | 'DONE', importId?, status, summary?, proposedMapping?, missingRequired? }. |
