Integration
Connect Act-On and FormBackend
When New Contact fires in Act-On, your agent runs Create Form in FormBackend, or New Form Submission in FormBackend to Add Contact to Marketing List in Act-On. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

What can your agent do in FormBackend when something happens in Act-On?
Any of FormBackend's 6 actions, including Create Form, Get Form, List Forms and List Submissions. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from FormBackend to Act-On?
Yes. When something happens in FormBackend, your agent can act in Act-On too. This page covers both directions: FormBackend's triggers and Act-On's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Act-On or FormBackend?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
Can my AI client use Act-On and FormBackend without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
