Any of Doclift PDF's 11 actions, including Update Variable, Add Template, Add Variable and Get Document Request. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Doclift PDF to Commune? Yes. When something happens in Doclift PDF, your agent can act in Commune too. This page covers both directions: Doclift PDF's triggers and Commune's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Commune or Doclift PDF? 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 Commune and Doclift PDF 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.
