ToolTypeWhat it does
list_operatorsread
List operators
List all operators (chat agents) on the Olark account. Olark API: GET /operators. Returns operators (each with id, email, nickname, available). Only operators under the authenticated account are returned (sub-accounts are not).
get_operatorread
Get an operator
Fetch a single operator (chat agent) by id. Olark API: GET /operators/{id}. Returns id, email, nickname, available.
list_groupsread
List groups
List all groups (teams) on the Olark account. Olark API: GET /groups. Returns groups (each with id, name, and operator_ids — the members).
olark_requestread
Raw read request
Power-user escape hatch: GET any Olark API path not wrapped by a dedicated tool. READ-ONLY — only GET is allowed. Pass the FULL API path after the base, starting with a slash, including any query string, e.g. /operators?page=2 or /groups. Returns the parsed JSON.
create_operatorwrite
Create an operator
MUTATES Olark data: creates a new operator (chat agent). Olark API: POST /operators (JSON). Required: email and password; nickname (display name) optional. NOTE: creating an operator CONSUMES A PAID SEAT (billing side effect). Returns the created operator.
update_operatorwrite
Update an operator
MUTATES Olark data: updates an existing operator. Olark API: PUT /operators/{id} (JSON). Set nickname (display name) and/or available (online/offline status); use the fields passthrough for any other documented field. NOTE: Olark uses full PUT semantics — omitting a field may reset it to its default.
add_operator_to_groupwrite
Add operator to group
MUTATES Olark data: adds an operator to a group (team). Olark API: POST /groups/{group_id}/operators (JSON body { operator_id }). Reversible via remove_operator_from_group. Adding to a nonexistent group returns 404.
remove_operator_from_groupwrite
Remove operator from group
MUTATES Olark data: removes an operator from a group (team). Olark API: DELETE /groups/{group_id}/operators/{operator_id}. Reversible via add_operator_to_group. Does NOT delete the operator, only their group membership.
olark_usage_statusmeta
Usage status (free-tier meter)
Report the caller's current free-tier usage this month: calls used, monthly limit, remaining, and whether the cap is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
olark_upgrademeta
Upgrade to Pro (unlimited)
Subscribe to the Pro plan for UNLIMITED Olark tool calls (the free tier caps monthly usage). Choose monthly ($9/month) or yearly ($90/year — 2 months free) billing. Returns a Stripe Checkout link to open in your browser; after payment your account upgrades automatically. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
