# Connect ActiveTrail and Runn

When **Contact Added to Group** fires in [ActiveTrail](https://apiant.ai/connections/activetrail), your agent runs **Create Client** in [Runn](https://apiant.ai/connections/runn), or **New Assignment** in Runn 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 Runn **11** triggers Runn **13** 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 Runn 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.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Cursor

Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

###

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

Any of Runn's 13 actions, including Create Assignment, Create Client, Create Contract and Create Person. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can my AI client use ActiveTrail and Runn without building an automation?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
