Integration
Connect Buffer and TriNet
When New media post by you fires in Buffer, your agent runs TriNet Create Emergency Contact in TriNet, or New employee approved in TriNet to Get channel in Buffer. 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
Buffer and TriNet, answered
What can start an automation from Buffer?
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 TriNet when something happens in Buffer?
Any of TriNet's 15 actions, including Get department id by name, Get emergency contact name by employee id, Search Job code by name and Search location id by name. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from TriNet to Buffer?
Yes. When something happens in TriNet, your agent can act in Buffer too. This page covers both directions: TriNet's triggers and Buffer's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Buffer or TriNet?
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 TriNet 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.
