TUTORIALS & HOW-TO GUIDES

Building Your First Intelligent Agent

Learn how to build a production-ready agent in under 30 minutes:

1. Authentication Setup: Generate API keys and configure environment variables

2. Agent Configuration: Define agent behavior, tools, and workflows

3. Query Implementation: Execute intelligent searches across 100M+ data points

4. Response Handling: Process structured JSON responses and extract insights

5. Error Management: Implement retry logic and graceful degradation

6. Production Deployment: Scale to handle thousands of concurrent requests

TROUBLESHOOTING & DEBUGGING

Common Issues and Solutions

Rate Limit Errors (429)

• Solution: Implement exponential backoff with jitter

• Use batch requests to reduce API calls

• Upgrade to Enterprise tier for unlimited requests

Authentication Failures (401)

• Verify API key is correctly set in X-API-Key header

• Check API key hasn't expired or been revoked

• Ensure no extra spaces or characters in key

Timeout Errors (504)

• Reduce query complexity or add pagination

• Implement client-side timeout handling

• Use async requests for long-running queries

Data Quality Issues

• Validate response schema matches expectations

• Use field filtering to reduce payload size

• Report data inconsistencies to developers@mentib.us

PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION

Best Practices for Production

Caching Strategies

• Implement Redis or Memcached for frequently accessed data

• Set appropriate TTL based on data freshness requirements

• Use ETags for conditional requests to save bandwidth

Batch Processing

• Group multiple queries into single batch request

• Reduce network overhead by up to 80%

• Maximum 100 queries per batch for optimal performance

Connection Pooling

• Reuse HTTP connections to reduce latency

• Configure pool size based on concurrent request volume

• Monitor connection health and implement automatic retry

Query Optimization

• Use field selection to fetch only required data

• Implement cursor-based pagination for large datasets

• Add indexes on frequently queried fields

Load Balancing

• Distribute requests across multiple API regions

• Implement circuit breakers for fault tolerance
