What do you want Azure DevOps and Buddy Punch to do together?
Ask the assistant
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.
Set it up in your client

Questions
Azure DevOps and Buddy Punch, answered
What can start an automation from Azure DevOps?
Any of Azure DevOps's 5 triggers in the catalog, including Completed Build, New Work Item, New Work Item Comment and Updated Work Item. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Buddy Punch when something happens in Azure DevOps?
Any of Buddy Punch's 15 actions, including Create Department Code, Create Employee, Create Location and Create Position. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Buddy Punch to Azure DevOps?
Yes. When something happens in Buddy Punch, your agent can act in Azure DevOps too. This page covers both directions: Buddy Punch's triggers and Azure DevOps's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Azure DevOps or Buddy Punch?
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 Azure DevOps and Buddy Punch 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.
