# Connect DocuPipe and Grist

When **Document Processed** fires in [DocuPipe](https://apiant.ai/connections/docupipe), your agent runs **Create Document** in [Grist](https://apiant.ai/connections/grist), or **New or Updated Record** in Grist to **Upload Document** in DocuPipe. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want DocuPipe and Grist 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.
