# Connect Adafruit IO and BuildData

When **New Feed Data Point** fires in [Adafruit IO](https://apiant.ai/connections/adafruit-io), your agent runs **Geocode address** in [BuildData](https://apiant.ai/connections/builddata), or **New permit** in BuildData to **Create Feed Data** in Adafruit IO. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want Adafruit IO and BuildData 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.
