Any of Chatter's 19 actions, including Create Post, Create Post in Group, Post Comment and Update group. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Chatter to Busybusy? Yes. When something happens in Chatter, your agent can act in Busybusy too. This page covers both directions: Chatter's triggers and Busybusy's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Busybusy or Chatter? 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 Busybusy and Chatter 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.
