# Connect Commerce Layer and Salesforce

When **New Attachment** fires in [Commerce Layer](https://apiant.ai/connections/commerce-layer), your agent runs **Create object record** in [Salesforce](https://apiant.ai/connections/salesforce), or **New object record** in Salesforce to **Add Customer Address** in Commerce Layer. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Commerce Layer **13** triggers Commerce Layer **28** actions Salesforce **2** triggers Salesforce **9** actions

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

## What do you want Commerce Layer and Salesforce 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.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

### Cursor

### 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.

Questions

## Commerce Layer and Salesforce, answered

###

### What can start an automation from Commerce Layer?

Any of Commerce Layer's 13 triggers in the catalog, including New Attachment, New Customer, New Customer Address Event and New Customer Password Reset Event. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Salesforce when something happens in Commerce Layer?

Any of Salesforce's 9 actions, including Create object record, Find most recent created or updated record, Update object record and Describe object. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Salesforce to Commerce Layer?

Yes. When something happens in Salesforce, your agent can act in Commerce Layer too. This page covers both directions: Salesforce's triggers and Commerce Layer's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Commerce Layer or Salesforce?

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 Commerce Layer and Salesforce 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.
