Questions
Busybusy and Katana, answered
What can start an automation from Busybusy?
Any of Busybusy's 6 triggers in the catalog, including Certifications: Certification Updated, Certifications: New Certification Created, Employee Created and Employee Updated. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Katana when something happens in Busybusy?
Any of Katana's 22 actions, including Create Customer, Create Sales Order, Update Customer and Update product. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Katana to Busybusy?
Yes. When something happens in Katana, your agent can act in Busybusy too. This page covers both directions: Katana's triggers and Busybusy's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Busybusy or Katana?
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 Katana 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.
