Connect Bitly and Buddy Punch
When New Bitlink in Group fires in Bitly, your agent runs Create Department Code in Buddy Punch, or Employee Created in Buddy Punch to Update a User in Bitly. 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.

Questions
Bitly and Buddy Punch, answered
What can start an automation from Bitly?
Any of Bitly's 8 triggers in the catalog, including New Bitlink in Group, New Branded Short Domain, New Channel and New Group. 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 Bitly?
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 Bitly?
Yes. When something happens in Buddy Punch, your agent can act in Bitly too. This page covers both directions: Buddy Punch's triggers and Bitly's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Bitly 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 Bitly 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.
