# Connect Common Room and DNSFilter

When **Custom Fields List** fires in [Common Room](https://apiant.ai/connections/common-room), your agent runs **Add organization user** in [DNSFilter](https://apiant.ai/connections/dnsfilter), or **Blocked Page Form Submitted** in DNSFilter to **Add Common Room Contact to Segment** in Common Room. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Common Room **2** triggers Common Room **11** actions DNSFilter **4** triggers DNSFilter **29** actions

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

## What do you want Common Room and DNSFilter 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)
