Agents deployed in enterprise settings must reason across structured APIs and document collections, yet existing benchmarks evaluate these capabilities in isolation. We introduce VAKRA (e\textbf{V}aluating \textbf{A}PI and \textbf{K}nowledge \textbf{R}etrieval \textbf{A}gents), a benchmark of over $8{,}000$ executable APIs across $62$ domains with tasks spanning three settings of increasing difficulty: diverse API interaction styles, multi-hop reasoning over structured APIs, and multi-source reasoning with natural-language tool-use policy constraints. Correctness is verified by re-executing predicted tool calls against live APIs, accommodating multiple valid paths. Using a fixed ReAct harness to isolate model capabilities from agent architecture, we evaluate frontier and open-weight models and find that even the best model achieves only 70.4\% on single-hop endpoint-style tasks and drops to 50--51\% on compositional APIs; performance degrades by over 50\% as reasoning depth increases, and policy-constrained questions expose severe failures (as low as 2.4\% on unanswerable queries). Trace analysis shows failures concentrate at language-mediated reasoning - entity disambiguation, cross-source grounding, rather than tool invocation mechanics.
