Questions
Buddy Punch and CS-Cart, answered
What can start an automation from Buddy Punch?
Any of Buddy Punch's 4 triggers in the catalog, including Employee Created, Employee Updated, Punch in Changed and Employee Punched In. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in CS-Cart when something happens in Buddy Punch?
Any of CS-Cart's 16 actions, including Create Order (For CS-Cart), Create Product, Update customer and Update order. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from CS-Cart to Buddy Punch?
Yes. When something happens in CS-Cart, your agent can act in Buddy Punch too. This page covers both directions: CS-Cart's triggers and Buddy Punch's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Buddy Punch or CS-Cart?
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 Buddy Punch and CS-Cart 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.
