When something happens in PostgreSQL, your agent can act in Balabook too. This page covers both directions: PostgreSQL's triggers and Balabook's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Balabook or PostgreSQL? 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 Balabook and PostgreSQL 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.
