Questions
AskNicely and CMS.gov, answered
What can start an automation from AskNicely?
Any of AskNicely's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Response. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in CMS.gov when something happens in AskNicely?
Any of CMS.gov's 4 actions, including Find datasets, Get dataset, List dataset records and Run SQL query. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from CMS.gov to AskNicely?
CMS.gov has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in AskNicely. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads CMS.gov's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for AskNicely or CMS.gov?
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 AskNicely and CMS.gov 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.
