# Connect CloudConvert and Karbon

When **Job Failed** fires in [CloudConvert](https://apiant.ai/connections/cloudconvert), your agent runs **Create Organization Contact** in [Karbon](https://apiant.ai/connections/karbon), or **New work item** in Karbon to **Convert a File** in CloudConvert. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

CloudConvert **2** triggers CloudConvert **4** actions Karbon **1** trigger Karbon **16** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want CloudConvert and Karbon to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One 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.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

###

###

### Can my AI client use CloudConvert and Karbon without building an automation?

### 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.
