Connect ActiveCollab to Catalog Machine
When New Project fires in ActiveCollab, your agent runs Import Product CSV in Catalog Machine. 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.

Questions
ActiveCollab and Catalog Machine, answered
What can start an automation from ActiveCollab?
Any of ActiveCollab's 5 triggers in the catalog, including New Project, New Task, New Task List and Task Moved. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Catalog Machine when something happens in ActiveCollab?
Any of Catalog Machine's 7 actions, including Get product, Get Product Import Status, Import Product CSV and List categories. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Catalog Machine to ActiveCollab?
Catalog Machine has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in ActiveCollab. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Catalog Machine's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for ActiveCollab or Catalog Machine?
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 ActiveCollab and Catalog Machine 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.
