# Connect BigCommerce and Grain

When **New Customer** fires in [BigCommerce](https://apiant.ai/connections/bigcommerce), your agent runs **Add Recording to Playlist** in [Grain](https://apiant.ai/connections/grain), or **New Playlist** in Grain to **Create Customer** in BigCommerce. 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.

## What do you want BigCommerce and Grain to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One 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

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

### Cursor

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Yes. When something happens in Grain, your agent can act in BigCommerce too. This page covers both directions: Grain's triggers and BigCommerce's actions are listed here as well.

###

###

### Can my AI client use BigCommerce and Grain without building an automation?

### 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.
