Agents

An agent lets you put an AI model to work inside Any2Info: answering chat questions, extracting data from documents, or running as a step in a dataflow.

Setting up an agent follows a fixed path:

1. Set up an account with an AI provider (OpenAI, Azure AI, Claude, or Mistral).
2. Create a connection in Data Studio so Any2Info can reach that provider.
3. Create the agent itself: its model, instructions, inputs and outputs, and the sources or external tools it can use.
4. Optionally, expose your own dataflows and dataclips to external AI clients through MCP: the reverse direction, where Any2Info acts as the tool provider instead of the consumer.

Each connection is centrally managed and can be reused by multiple agents, so steps 1 and 2 are usually a one-time setup per provider.
