Connect CommCare to When I Work
When New Case fires in CommCare, your agent runs Create User in When I Work. 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.

Questions
CommCare and When I Work, answered
What can start an automation from CommCare?
Any of CommCare's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Case, New Form Submission and New or Updated Case. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in When I Work when something happens in CommCare?
Any of When I Work's 22 actions, including Create User, Update shift, Update user and Add location. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from When I Work to CommCare?
When I Work has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in CommCare. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads When I Work's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for CommCare or When I Work?
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 When I Work 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.
