FAQ

FAQ

Practical answers to common setup and usage questions.

The agent uses Databox via MCP to connect to all connected paid platforms (e.g., Google Ads, Facebook Ads, LinkedIn Ads, TikTok Ads). It fetches Spend, Clicks, CPC, CTR, Impressions, and Conversions for this week and last week, then computes WoW changes. It formats outputs for Slack and HTML email and delivers them on schedule.

Yes. The agent reads metrics defined in your Databox account and you can adjust the Databox dashboard to include or exclude metrics. The weekly report will reflect the current Databox configuration. If you need additional metrics, update the Databox data sources and re-run the setup.

Delivery is configured by the Schedule Trigger in the workflow and is set to Monday at 9 AM by default. You can modify the trigger time during setup or in later updates. If the time changes, ensure the Databox connections and recipients stay in sync.

Data security is ensured through OAuth2 with Databox, encrypted transmission, and restricted access to Slack and Gmail recipients. OpenAI API usage is secured by API keys with access controls. You can revoke access at any time and monitor activity in your connected accounts.

If Databox is temporarily unavailable, the agent will retry the data pull and can fall back to the most recent successful snapshot. It will notify you of any persistent issues and pause report delivery to avoid false data. You can resume once Databox is back online.

Yes. You can add Slack channels and Gmail recipients in the setup steps. The agent supports multiple Slack channels and email addresses. Changes take effect after revalidating the connections in the setup flow.

The current agent is designed around Databox via MCP for centralized metrics. Extensions to other data sources are possible but would require additional configuration and testing. For broader coverage, coordinate with your integration team to plan phased additions.
