Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Amazon CloudFront and Postman 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.

Any of Amazon CloudFront's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Distribution and New Invalidation. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Postman when something happens in Amazon CloudFront? Any of Postman's 26 actions, including Create Collection, Create Environment, Create Folder and Create Mock Server. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Postman to Amazon CloudFront? Yes. When something happens in Postman, your agent can act in Amazon CloudFront too. This page covers both directions: Postman's triggers and Amazon CloudFront's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Amazon CloudFront or Postman? 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 Amazon CloudFront and Postman 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.
