Connecting them means a Bitlink can be made the moment a box appears and written back onto the box, and new links or QR codes in a Bitly group can show up as Streak boxes, tasks or comments instead of being tracked by hand.

Yes. After Bitly creates the Bitlink, the agent can set it on the box with Update Box Field Value, so the link sits in the custom field your pipeline already uses. It can also add a comment on the box so the owner sees it in Gmail. ### ### What can start a run on the Bitly side? A new Bitlink, QR code, tag, channel, group or branded short domain appearing in Bitly can each start a run. From there the agent can create a box, create a task, add a comment or move a box to another stage in Streak. ### ### What can start an automation from Bitly? Any of Bitly's 8 triggers in the catalog, including New Bitlink in Group, New QR Code in Group, New Branded Short Domain and New Channel. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Streak when something happens in Bitly? Any of Streak's 21 actions, including Create Box, Create Task, Create Comment and Create Pipeline. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Streak to Bitly? Yes. When something happens in Streak, your agent can act in Bitly too. This page covers both directions: Streak's triggers and Bitly's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Bitly or Streak? 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 Streak 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.
