# Connect Common Room and UpKeep

When **Custom Fields List** fires in [Common Room](https://apiant.ai/connections/common-room), your agent runs **Create Purchase Order** in [UpKeep](https://apiant.ai/connections/upkeep), or **New Purchase Order** in UpKeep 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 UpKeep **2** triggers UpKeep **31** 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 UpKeep 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.

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

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.
