Integration
Connect Apollo and Zendesk
When Account Updated fires in Apollo, your agent runs Add Comment to Ticket in Zendesk, or New Messaging Conversation in Zendesk to Create Contact in Apollo. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne 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.

Questions
Apollo and Zendesk, answered
What can start an automation from Apollo?
Any of Apollo's 4 triggers in the catalog, including Account Updated, Contact Updated, New Account and New Contact. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Zendesk when something happens in Apollo?
Any of Zendesk's 18 actions, including Create Organization, Create Ticket, Create User and Update Organization. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Zendesk to Apollo?
Yes. When something happens in Zendesk, your agent can act in Apollo too. This page covers both directions: Zendesk's triggers and Apollo's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Apollo or Zendesk?
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 Apollo and Zendesk 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.
