## Preview RPC

`agents.deployments.preview_rpc(strdeployment_id, DeploymentPreviewRpcParams**kwargs)  -> AgentRpcResponse`

**post** `/agents/{agent_id}/deployments/{deployment_id}/rpc`

Send an RPC request to a specific deployment (for preview testing).

### Parameters

- `agent_id: str`

- `deployment_id: str`

- `method: Literal["event/send", "task/create", "message/send", 2 more]`

  - `"event/send"`

  - `"task/create"`

  - `"message/send"`

  - `"task/cancel"`

  - `"task/interrupt"`

- `params: Params`

  The parameters for the agent RPC request

  - `class ParamsCreateTaskRequest: …`

    - `name: Optional[str]`

      Optional human-readable name for the task. When set it must be globally unique. task/create is get-or-create by name: reusing an existing name returns the existing task (with its prior history) instead of creating a new one, so omit name (or make it unique, e.g. by appending a UUID) whenever each call should produce a fresh task.

    - `params: Optional[Dict[str, object]]`

      The parameters for the task. On a get-or-create by name, providing params overwrites the existing task's params (it is not a pure read).

    - `task_metadata: Optional[Dict[str, object]]`

      Caller-provided metadata to persist on the task row. Only applied at task creation; ignored if a task with this name already exists. Forwarded to the agent inside the ACP payload for backward compatibility.

  - `class ParamsCancelTaskRequest: …`

    - `task_id: Optional[str]`

      The ID of the task to cancel. Either this or task_name must be provided.

    - `task_name: Optional[str]`

      The name of the task to cancel. Either this or task_id must be provided.

  - `class ParamsInterruptTaskRequest: …`

    - `task_id: Optional[str]`

      The ID of the task to interrupt. Either this or task_name must be provided.

    - `task_name: Optional[str]`

      The name of the task to interrupt. Either this or task_id must be provided.
