Any of Poptin's 31 actions, including Create preference, Update contact status, Update preference and Campaign Analytics. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Poptin to Close? Yes. When something happens in Poptin, your agent can act in Close too.

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 Poptin 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.
