Best Practices
Session Management
MCP sessions expire after 24 hours of inactivity.
- Store session IDs in your platform’s credential manager
- Set up monitoring for authentication failures
- Refresh sessions proactively for critical workflows
Rate Limiting
- Add delays between high-volume API calls
- Batch operations where possible
- Cache frequently accessed data
Error Handling
- Check for authentication errors and refresh session
- Handle rate limit responses with exponential backoff
- Log failures for debugging

Frequently Asked Questions
Which automation platform should I choose?
n8n is available now and offers the most flexibility. Choose Zapier (coming soon) for no-code simplicity, or Make for visual workflow building. All will use the same MCP protocol.
Can I use the REST API instead of MCP?
Yes, graph8 Studio has a full REST API. MCP is optimized for AI-native tools and conversational interfaces. Use REST API for traditional integrations and MCP for AI workflows.
How do I migrate automations between platforms?
MCP tools are standardized, so the same operations work across platforms. You’ll need to rebuild the workflow logic in each platform, but the graph8 calls remain identical.
Is there a way to batch multiple operations?
Currently, each MCP call is individual. For bulk operations, loop through items in your automation platform. Consider adding delays to avoid rate limits.
How do I report issues with the MCP integration?
Contact support@graph8.com with details about your platform, the operation attempted, and any error messages. Include your session ID (but not the full URL) for debugging.
