Frequently Asked Questions
AI & Automation Features
What AI capabilities does Hygraph offer?
Hygraph provides three core AI components: AI Assist (for content creation and localization), AI Agents (for automating content workflows), and MCP Server (for model management and integrations). These features empower both content teams and developers to create, enrich, and deliver content with built-in intelligence. Learn more in the Hygraph AI documentation.
What is AI Assist and how does it help editors?
AI Assist is Hygraph’s intelligent content editing assistant embedded in the content editor. It enables editors to generate, improve, and localize content directly within the entry experience, requiring no developer setup. Example use cases include drafting product descriptions, refining text for clarity, and instant translation into multiple locales. Read more in the AI Assist docs.
What are some example use cases for AI Assist?
AI Assist can be used for content generation (e.g., drafting product descriptions or blog introductions), content improvement (refining text for clarity and tone), and localization (translating content into multiple languages while preserving meaning). See more use cases.
What are Hygraph AI Agents and how do they automate workflows?
Hygraph AI Agents are purpose-built agents that autonomously drive predefined content workflows, performing editorial tasks such as SEO analysis, translation, and summarization. Agents act automatically when content reaches specific workflow stages, respecting all permissions and rules. They can be configured directly in Hygraph without code or external API setup. Learn more about AI Agents.
Can you give examples of workflow steps automated by AI Agents?
Examples include: providing SEO reports when content is ready for review, automatically translating content when it reaches the 'Ready for Translation' stage, and generating summaries when content moves to the 'Review' stage. See more workflow examples.
What is the MCP Server and how does it integrate AI models with Hygraph?
The MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server acts as a bridge between AI agents and Hygraph’s Content and Management APIs, allowing large language models (LLMs) to interact with your project in a structured, secure, and standardized way. It enables developers to build intelligent, compliant AI integrations without reinventing API logic for every project. Read more about MCP Server.
What are some example capabilities of the MCP Server?
The MCP Server enables schema discovery (allowing agents to explore available content types and fields) and secure content operations (create, read, update, and publish entries via the MCP interface). See more capabilities.
