Your AI agent uses Amcards' API to query contacts in real-time. It can search by email, first name, or last name, and handles pagination automatically to process large lists. Results include all stored contact fields - names, addresses, and timestamps - so your agent can provide accurate, up-to-date recipient information during any conversation.

Yes. The agent retrieves your complete card history through the Get Cards API endpoint. This includes all cards associated with your account - queued, printed, mailed, or delivered. Your team can ask about specific campaigns or get a full overview of appreciation marketing activity without logging into Amcards directly.

Tars requires your Amcards API key for authentication. You can generate this key from your Amcards account settings. The connection uses secure Bearer token authorization over HTTPS. No additional technical setup is needed - simply paste your API key when adding the Amcards tool to your agent.

Tars does not permanently store your Amcards data. Each query is made in real-time through the API, and results are used only within the context of the active conversation. Your contact information and card history remain in Amcards - Tars simply provides the AI interface to access and act on that data.

The current Amcards integration focuses on retrieving cards and contacts for monitoring and management purposes. Creating new cards or triggering campaigns would require additional API endpoints. For now, your agent excels at answering questions about existing campaigns, finding contacts, and providing card status updates to your team.

Direct Amcards access requires logging into their platform and navigating dashboards. Zapier automates based on triggers but lacks conversational flexibility. With Tars, your team simply asks natural language questions - "Who hasn't received a card this year?" - and gets instant answers. It's human-friendly access to your appreciation marketing data.

Your AI agent retrieves contact records as stored in Amcards. If it returns contacts with missing or potentially outdated addresses, your team is alerted during the conversation. While the agent cannot update records directly, it helps identify data quality issues before campaigns are sent, preventing wasted mailings.

The integration supports filtering by email, first name, and last name fields. For more complex segmentation using custom fields or tags, you would need to export a broader list and filter conversationally with your agent's help. The agent can process and analyze contact lists to answer specific questions about your audience segments.
