Before you call either
Salesforce API + MCP
- Call
getObjectSchemain index mode first, then detail mode for the object you need - Put WHERE and LIMIT on every SOQL query and filter on indexed fields to avoid timeouts
- Ask the admin for SObject Reads if the job only reads, since SObject All includes delete
- Watch
Sforce-Limit-Infoon REST calls, as the daily allocation is shared by the org - Re-authorise if a token came from the beta service, because beta tokens don't work on GA
Twenty API + MCP
- Call
learn_toolswith every tool name you need in one call beforeexecute_tool - Build CRUD names from the grammar (
find_many_companies,upsert_many_people) instead of browsing the catalogue - Pass one category to
get_tool_catalog, since an unfiltered call returns hundreds of operations - Load the matching skill before any workflow or metadata tool, as the server instructions require
- Batch up to 60 records a call to stay inside 100 requests a minute
