Connect AskNicely and Buddy Punch
When New Response fires in AskNicely, your agent runs Create Department Code in Buddy Punch, or Employee Created in Buddy Punch to Deactivate Contact in AskNicely. 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.
