## Introduction

This guide walks you through connecting Onesignal rest api to AutoGen using the Composio tool router. By the end, you'll have a working Onesignal rest api agent that can send push notification to all active users, list all devices registered for your app, view details of last 10 notifications through natural language commands.
This guide will help you understand how to give your AutoGen agent real control over a Onesignal rest api account through Composio's Onesignal rest api MCP server.
Before we dive in, let's take a quick look at the key ideas and tools involved.

## What is AutoGen?

Autogen is a framework for building multi-agent conversational AI systems from Microsoft. It enables you to create agents that can collaborate, use tools, and maintain complex workflows.
Key features include:
- Multi-Agent Systems: Build collaborative agent workflows
- MCP Workbench: Native support for Model Context Protocol tools
- Streaming HTTP: Connect to external services through streamable HTTP
- AssistantAgent: Pre-built agent class for tool-using assistants

## What is the Onesignal rest api MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Onesignal rest api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your OneSignal account. It provides structured and secure access to your messaging platform, so your agent can perform actions like sending push notifications, managing devices, viewing app details, and segmenting audiences automatically on your behalf.
- Automated push notifications and messaging: Instantly have your agent create and send targeted push notifications to your users, keeping them engaged and informed.
- Device management and updates: Let your agent add, update, or remove registered devices (players) to keep your audience data fresh and accurate.
- App insights and metadata retrieval: Effortlessly fetch and review detailed app information, notification history, and device lists for better operational visibility.
- Audience segmentation and targeting: Enable your agent to view and utilize user segments, making it easy to target the right audience for every message.
- Notification analytics and history: Have your agent retrieve past notifications, track delivery, and analyze engagement trends for continuous improvement.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Onesignal rest api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agents and assistants directly to Onesignal rest api. Instead of manually wiring Onesignal rest api APIs, OAuth, and scopes yourself, you get a structured, tool-based interface that an LLM can call safely.
With Composio's managed implementation, you don't have to create your own developer app. For production, if you're building an end product, we recommend using your own credentials. The managed server helps you prototype fast and go from 0-1 faster.

## Step-by-step Guide

### 1. Prerequisites

You will need:
- A Composio API key
- An OpenAI API key (used by Autogen's OpenAIChatCompletionClient)
- A Onesignal rest api account you can connect to Composio
- Some basic familiarity with Autogen and Python async

### 1. Getting API Keys for OpenAI and Composio

OpenAI API Key
- Go to the [OpenAI dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys) and create an API key. You'll need credits to use the models, or you can connect to another model provider.
- Keep the API key safe.
Composio API Key
- Log in to the [Composio dashboard](https://dashboard.composio.dev?utm_source=toolkits&utm_medium=framework_docs).
- Navigate to your API settings and generate a new API key.
- Store this key securely as you'll need it for authentication.

### 2. Install dependencies

Install Composio, Autogen extensions, and dotenv.
What's happening:
- composio connects your agent to Onesignal rest api via MCP
- autogen-agentchat provides the AssistantAgent class
- autogen-ext-openai provides the OpenAI model client
- autogen-ext-tools provides MCP workbench support
```bash
pip install composio python-dotenv
pip install autogen-agentchat autogen-ext-openai autogen-ext-tools
```

### 3. Set up environment variables

Create a .env file in your project folder.
What's happening:
- COMPOSIO_API_KEY is required to talk to Composio
- OPENAI_API_KEY is used by Autogen's OpenAI client
- USER_ID is how Composio identifies which user's Onesignal rest api connections to use
```bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=your-composio-api-key
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
USER_ID=your-user-identifier@example.com
```

### 4. Import dependencies and create Tool Router session

What's happening:
- load_dotenv() reads your .env file
- Composio(api_key=...) initializes the SDK
- create(...) creates a Tool Router session that exposes Onesignal rest api tools
- session.mcp.url is the MCP endpoint that Autogen will connect to
```python
import asyncio
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from composio import Composio

from autogen_agentchat.agents import AssistantAgent
from autogen_ext.models.openai import OpenAIChatCompletionClient
from autogen_ext.tools.mcp import McpWorkbench, StreamableHttpServerParams

load_dotenv()

async def main():
    # Initialize Composio and create a Onesignal rest api session
    composio = Composio(api_key=os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY"))
    session = composio.create(
        user_id=os.getenv("USER_ID"),
        toolkits=["onesignal_rest_api"]
    )
    url = session.mcp.url
```

### 5. Configure MCP parameters for Autogen

Autogen expects parameters describing how to talk to the MCP server. That is what StreamableHttpServerParams is for.
What's happening:
- url points to the Tool Router MCP endpoint from Composio
- timeout is the HTTP timeout for requests
- sse_read_timeout controls how long to wait when streaming responses
- terminate_on_close=True cleans up the MCP server process when the workbench is closed
```python
# Configure MCP server parameters for Streamable HTTP
server_params = StreamableHttpServerParams(
    url=url,
    timeout=30.0,
    sse_read_timeout=300.0,
    terminate_on_close=True,
    headers={"x-api-key": os.getenv("COMPOSIO_API_KEY")}
)
```

### 6. Create the model client and agent

What's happening:
- OpenAIChatCompletionClient wraps the OpenAI model for Autogen
- McpWorkbench connects the agent to the MCP tools
- AssistantAgent is configured with the Onesignal rest api tools from the workbench
```python
# Create model client
model_client = OpenAIChatCompletionClient(
    model="gpt-5",
    api_key=os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
)

# Use McpWorkbench as context manager
async with McpWorkbench(server_params) as workbench:
    # Create Onesignal rest api assistant agent with MCP tools
    agent = AssistantAgent(
        name="onesignal_rest_api_assistant",
        description="An AI assistant that helps with Onesignal rest api operations.",
        model_client=model_client,
        workbench=workbench,
        model_client_stream=True,
        max_tool_iterations=10
    )
```

### 7. Run the interactive chat loop

What's happening:
- The script prompts you in a loop with You:
- Autogen passes your input to the model, which decides which Onesignal rest api tools to call via MCP
- agent.run_stream(...) yields streaming messages as the agent thinks and calls tools
- Typing exit, quit, or bye ends the loop
```python
print("Chat started! Type 'exit' or 'quit' to end the conversation.\n")
print("Ask any Onesignal rest api related question or task to the agent.\n")

# Conversation loop
while True:
    user_input = input("You: ").strip()

    if user_input.lower() in ["exit", "quit", "bye"]:
        print("\nGoodbye!")
        break

    if not user_input:
        continue

    print("\nAgent is thinking...\n")

    # Run the agent with streaming
    try:
        response_text = ""
        async for message in agent.run_stream(task=user_input):
            if hasattr(message, "content") and message.content:
                response_text = message.content

        # Print the final response
        if response_text:
            print(f"Agent: {response_text}\n")
        else:
            print("Agent: I encountered an issue processing your request.\n")

    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Agent: Sorry, I encountered an error: {str(e)}\n")
```

                print("\nGoodbye!")
                break

            if not user_input:
                continue

            print("\nAgent is thinking...\n")

            # Run the agent with streaming
            try:
                response_text = ""
                async for message in agent.run_stream(task=user_input):
                    if hasattr(message, 'content') and message.content:
                        response_text = message.content

                # Print the final response
                if response_text:
                    print(f"Agent: {response_text}\n")
                else:
                    print("Agent: I encountered an issue processing your request.\n")

            except Exception as e:
                print(f"Agent: Sorry, I encountered an error: {str(e)}\n")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())
```

## Conclusion

You now have an Autogen assistant wired into Onesignal rest api through Composio's Tool Router and MCP. From here you can:
- Add more toolkits to the toolkits list, for example notion or hubspot
- Refine the agent description to point it at specific workflows
- Wrap this script behind a UI, Slack bot, or internal tool
Once the pattern is clear for Onesignal rest api, you can reuse the same structure for other MCP-enabled apps with minimal code changes.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Onesignal rest api MCP?

With a standalone Onesignal rest api MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Onesignal rest api tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Onesignal rest api and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Autogen?

Yes, you can. Autogen fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Onesignal rest api tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Onesignal rest api while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Onesignal rest api scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Onesignal rest api data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
