Connect CommCare and Switchboard Canvas
When New Case fires in CommCare, your agent runs Create Image in Switchboard Canvas, or New Template in Switchboard Canvas to Create Case in CommCare. 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.

Can it also run from Switchboard Canvas to CommCare?

Do I have to build a connector for CommCare or Switchboard Canvas?
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 CommCare and Switchboard Canvas 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.
