Integration
Connect bambooHR and Shape
When New Employee fires in bambooHR, your agent runs Create Record in Shape, or New Record in Shape to Add Employee Table Row in bambooHR. 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.
What do you want bambooHR and Shape to do together?

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.

Questions
bambooHR and Shape, answered
What can start an automation from bambooHR?
Any of bambooHR's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Employee, New or Updated Time Off Request and Updated Employee. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Shape when something happens in bambooHR?
Any of Shape's 10 actions, including Create Record, Update Record, Find Record and Get Prioritized View Count. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Shape to bambooHR?
Yes. When something happens in Shape, your agent can act in bambooHR too. This page covers both directions: Shape's triggers and bambooHR's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for bambooHR or Shape?
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 bambooHR and Shape 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.
