# Databox through One

Databox is a business analytics platform that unifies metrics from multiple tools into customizable dashboards and alerts, helping teams track performance and make data-driven decisions in real time.

One exposes Databox through four MCP tools. The table below carries real action ids from One's knowledge base, so for a common operation you can skip search and go straight to reading the action's parameters.

## How to run an action

1. Find the action in the table below, or call `search_one_platform_actions` with platform `databox` if it is not listed.
2. Call `get_one_action_knowledge` with the action id. Do this every time, including for actions in this table. The table gives you the id, not the parameters.
3. Call `execute_one_action` with parameters copied from that knowledge.

Never guess a parameter name, a body field, or an enum value. The knowledge has the real schema, and a guessed field is either a 400 or a silent write of the wrong thing.

## Before you start

Call `list_one_integrations` once and confirm Databox is connected. If it is missing, the user has not connected it: say so and point them at https://app.withone.ai rather than reaching for raw HTTP.

Each connection carries an `access` field. If it reports `{"policy": "methods", "methods": ["GET"]}` the agent is read-only here, so plan a read-only answer instead of attempting a write that will be refused.

## Before a write

Creates, updates, deletes and sends land on a real Databox account and cannot be recalled. State the action and the specific target in one line before the first write in a task, and let the user stop you. Reads need no confirmation.

## Actions

### Datasets

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|

### DataSources

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|

### DatasetIngestion

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieve a Dataset Ingestion | GET | `/datasets/{{DATASETID}}/ingestions/{{INGESTIONID}}` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbKGXmD7E::du-ANdZRQpiPzkMACSv_hg` |
| Create a Dataset Ingestion (Add Data Records) | POST | `/datasets/{{DATASETID}}/data` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbJ2odr6c::zDszvtIXRbOdaag6e7Cm-Q` |

### Accounts

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|
| List Accounts | GET | `/accounts` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbItsfnag::feuOVSHJRxi_eJLkkZY_nQ` |

### AccountTimeZones

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|
| List Supported Account Time Zones | GET | `/accounts/timezones` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbI72kJr4::lw7zZxsFQJW4M1Vg449LWg` |

### Auth

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|
| Validate an API Key | GET | `/auth/validate-key` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbJBoI7IU::ItGvwUWrSluqyXpvnRNAhA` |

### Ingestions

| Action | Method | Path | Action id |
|---|---|---|---|
| List a Dataset’s Ingestions | GET | `/datasets/{{DATASETID}}/ingestions` | `conn_mod_def::GJgbJ-n7ahs::N-gRit6kSPiuTamgNjfAwA` |

## When a call fails

The error comes from Databox, not from One. A 400 or 422 means your parameters do not match the schema, so re-read the knowledge and fix the field. A 401 or 403 means the connection needs re-authorizing, which no retry will fix. A 404 means the id is not on this account. A 429 means slow down. Never retry a write more than once: the first attempt may have landed.
