Questions
Anchor and GBIF, answered
What can start an automation from Anchor?
Any of Anchor's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Proposal Sent, Agreement Amended, Proposal Approved and Proposal Published. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in GBIF when something happens in Anchor?
Any of GBIF's 8 actions, including Find datasets, Find occurrences, Find species and Get dataset. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from GBIF to Anchor?
GBIF has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Anchor. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads GBIF's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Anchor or GBIF?
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.
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.
