Any of Confluence Cloud's 8 triggers in the catalog, including New Blog Post, New Footer Comment, New or Updated Page and New Page. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Minor Planet Center when something happens in Confluence Cloud? Any of Minor Planet Center's 11 actions, including Find MPECs, Find near-duplicate observations, Get action code and Get magnitude band. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Minor Planet Center to Confluence Cloud? Minor Planet Center has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Confluence Cloud. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Minor Planet Center's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Confluence Cloud or Minor Planet Center? 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 Confluence Cloud and Minor Planet Center 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.
