Integration
Connect Close and Google Drive
When New Contact in Contact Smart View fires in Close, your agent runs Add File Sharing Preference in Google Drive, or Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides) in Google Drive to Add Address to Lead in Close. 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 Close and Google Drive 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.

Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Trigger
File CreatedTriggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Trigger
File Deleted or TrashedTriggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Trigger
File Shared (Permissions Added)Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Trigger
File UpdatedTriggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Trigger
Google Drive ChangesTriggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
Trigger
New File Matching QueryTriggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.

Questions
Close and Google Drive, answered
What can start an automation from Close?
Any of Close's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Contact in Contact Smart View, New Lead in Smart View and New Note. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Google Drive when something happens in Close?
Any of Google Drive's 85 actions, including Create Comment, Create File, Create File From Text and Create Folder. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Google Drive to Close?
Yes. When something happens in Google Drive, your agent can act in Close too. This page covers both directions: Google Drive's triggers and Close's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Close or Google Drive?
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 Close and Google Drive 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.
