Any of Buffer's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New media post by you and New post by you. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in CurrencyBeacon when something happens in Buffer? Any of CurrencyBeacon's 4 actions, including Convert currency amount, Get exchange rate time series, Get historical exchange rates and List supported currencies. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from CurrencyBeacon to Buffer? CurrencyBeacon has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Buffer. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads CurrencyBeacon's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Buffer or CurrencyBeacon? 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 Buffer and CurrencyBeacon 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.
