Integration tools connect your agent to external systems. Three flavors: • Webhooks: call any REST API on your backend • MCP: connect to Model Context Protocol servers • Native integrations: prebuilt connectors for tools like HubSpot

Webhooks are the most flexible. The agent generates query, body, and path parameters from the conversation, hits your endpoint, and uses the response in its next turn. Best for fetching real-time data or taking authenticated actions like booking a meeting.

ElevenAgents can be extended with tools to take real action during a conversation. There are three categories: • Client tools • System tools • Integration tools Here's when to use each.

Client tools run directly on the user's device. Use them to trigger UI events, manipulate the DOM, fire notifications, or run any function inside your web or mobile app. If the agent needs to do something visible to the user in real time, this is the right tool.

System tools control the conversation itself, no external calls required. • Built-in actions include: • End call • Language detection • Agent transfer • Transfer to number • Skip turn • Play keypad touch tone • Voicemail detection

Introducing ElevenAgents React SDK v1.0 A re-architecture of the JavaScript and React SDK to include granular hooks, a unified API across web and React Native, and a stable public API. These changes improve both the developer experience and performance for your end users.

This release brings six new hooks, each subscribing to an individual slice of conversation state. Components only re-render when the data they consume changes, allowing for better performance.

This unified API means that the JavaScript, React, and React Native SDKs are built on top of each other. All three packages will be in sync, so you can use the latest changes on all platforms the same day.
