Connect Close and Loop Returns
When New Contact in Contact Smart View fires in Close, your agent runs Create Allowlist Item in Loop Returns, or New Return Created in Loop Returns 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.

Questions
Close and Loop Returns, 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 Loop Returns when something happens in Close?
Any of Loop Returns's 82 actions, including Create Allowlist Item, Create Blocklist Item, Create Bulk Operation and Create Destination. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Loop Returns to Close?
Yes. When something happens in Loop Returns, your agent can act in Close too. This page covers both directions: Loop Returns's triggers and Close's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Close or Loop Returns?
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 Loop Returns 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.
