Integration
Connect Clarra and OpenAI
When Expense Forecast Updated fires in Clarra, your agent runs Create message in OpenAI, or New batch in OpenAI to Create Company Contact in Clarra. 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.
What do you want Clarra and OpenAI to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

Questions
Clarra and OpenAI, answered
What can start an automation from Clarra?
Any of Clarra's 14 triggers in the catalog, including Expense Forecast Updated, New Expense Forecast, New Individual Contact and New Payment. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in OpenAI when something happens in Clarra?
Any of OpenAI's 70 actions, including Create assistant, Create chat completion, Create completion and Create embedding. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from OpenAI to Clarra?
Yes. When something happens in OpenAI, your agent can act in Clarra too. This page covers both directions: OpenAI's triggers and Clarra's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Clarra or OpenAI?
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 Clarra and OpenAI 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.
