Any of Air's 5 triggers in the catalog, including Asset Custom Field Updated, Board Custom Field Updated, New Asset and New Board. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Apaleo when something happens in Air? Any of Apaleo's 66 actions, including Create Block, Create Booking, Create Company and Create Folio. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Apaleo to Air? Yes. When something happens in Apaleo, your agent can act in Air too. This page covers both directions: Apaleo's triggers and Air's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Air or Apaleo? 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 Air and Apaleo 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.
