# Connect ActiveTrail and Commerce Layer

When **Contact Added to Group** fires in [ActiveTrail](https://apiant.ai/connections/activetrail), your agent runs **Add Customer Address** in [Commerce Layer](https://apiant.ai/connections/commerce-layer), or **New Attachment** in Commerce Layer to **Add Contact to Group** in ActiveTrail. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

ActiveTrail **4** triggers ActiveTrail **15** actions Commerce Layer **13** triggers Commerce Layer **28** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want ActiveTrail and Commerce Layer to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

Questions

## ActiveTrail and Commerce Layer, answered

###

### What can start an automation from ActiveTrail?

Any of ActiveTrail's 4 triggers in the catalog, including Contact Added to Group, Contact Removed From Group, Contact Updated and Contact Unsubscribed. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Commerce Layer when something happens in ActiveTrail?

Any of Commerce Layer's 28 actions, including Create Address, Create Attachment, Create Customer and Create Gift Card. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Commerce Layer to ActiveTrail?

Yes. When something happens in Commerce Layer, your agent can act in ActiveTrail too. This page covers both directions: Commerce Layer's triggers and ActiveTrail's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for ActiveTrail or Commerce Layer?

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 ActiveTrail and Commerce Layer 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.
