Any of Brandfolder's 20 actions, including Create Asset, Create Brandfolder, Create Custom Field and Create Section. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Brandfolder to Affinity? Yes. When something happens in Brandfolder, your agent can act in Affinity too. This page covers both directions: Brandfolder's triggers and Affinity's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Affinity or Brandfolder? 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 Affinity and Brandfolder 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.
