My Agent wont call the tools

I have build a whole automation and it has airtable and gmail tools it should be automated email agent, but when i type in the message it wont call the tools and it cant work, does anyone know a fix

im struggling with the same, i have no idea why some models just dont call the tools

Do you know what model can call the tool, so I can try it

you can try with gpt 4o or claude sonnet 3.7. both are really good with tool calling

I have tried 4o but it is not working

share your workflow!!

Chat message-AI Agent(Openai, Simple Memory, Airtable Search, Gmail send, Airtable Update)

ctrl+a, ctrl c+ and ctrl+v here to visualize your whole workflow :stuck_out_tongue:

But, I have my credentials and prompt and everything

credentials wont be visualized haha

I tried but they reported for spamming

Just want to add that including details about the tool and when to call it either in the system prompt or the message prompt helps the model know when to use it.

Tip for sharing your workflow in the forum

Pasting your n8n workflow


Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

<your workflow>

Make sure that you’ve removed any sensitive information from your workflow and include dummy data or pinned data as much as you can!

I solved it, I think the problem was that the agent was overwhelmed with so many tools so I just made 2 another workflows and I gave the primary agent that workflows as tools and after that it worked completely fine.
