Connecting them means a new row in Caspio can become a contact, project or timeslip in FreeAgent, and a new FreeAgent invoice or project can be matched back to the right Caspio record.

Yes. The agent can list contacts in FreeAgent first and only create the contact when no match comes back, then carry on to create the project for that contact. ### ### What can happen in FreeAgent when something changes in Caspio? A new or updated Caspio record can create a contact, project, invoice or timeslip in FreeAgent, or update an existing contact. A deleted Caspio record can delete a contact by id if that is what you want. ### ### What can start an automation from Caspio? Any of Caspio's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New or Updated Record, New Record, Updated Record and Deleted Record. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in FreeAgent when something happens in Caspio? Any of FreeAgent's 50 actions, including Create Timeslip, List Contacts, Update Contact and Create Bill. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from FreeAgent to Caspio? Yes. When something happens in FreeAgent, your agent can act in Caspio too. This page covers both directions: FreeAgent's triggers and Caspio's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Caspio or FreeAgent? 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 Caspio and FreeAgent 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.
