Any of Bart's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New service advisory. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Vapi when something happens in Bart? Any of Vapi's 21 actions, including Create Call, Create Chat, Update Call and Update phone number. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Vapi to Bart? Yes. When something happens in Vapi, your agent can act in Bart too. This page covers both directions: Vapi's triggers and Bart's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Bart or Vapi? 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 Bart and Vapi 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.
