Any of Autotask's 24 triggers in the catalog, including New Company, New Company "To Do" Event, New Configuration Item and New Contact. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Circle when something happens in Autotask? Any of Circle's 27 actions, including Create Comment, Create Contact, Create Course Lesson and Create Course Section. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Circle to Autotask? Yes. When something happens in Circle, your agent can act in Autotask too. This page covers both directions: Circle's triggers and Autotask's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Autotask or Circle? 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 Autotask and Circle 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.
