Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Dropbox and Typeform 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) ### Claude, web and desktop Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Cursor Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Zed Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Any other MCP client 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. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) Typeform collects the responses and Dropbox holds the files, so joining them means every completed submission can land as a stored file where your team already looks. You can also look up a form definition, share a folder with reviewers, pull revisions of an existing file, or hand back a download when a response asks for one.

Typeform's New Form Response trigger polls for completed submissions and skips ones it has already seen, using the response token. Each new response then runs the Dropbox actions you asked for, such as uploading a file or sharing a folder. ### ### Can a response create the Dropbox folder it should be filed into? Yes. The Share folder action in Dropbox creates the folder when the path does not exist yet, so a response can name the folder and it will be there before collaborators are added. ### ### What can start an automation from Dropbox? Any of Dropbox's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New File in Folder. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Typeform when something happens in Dropbox? Any of Typeform's 20 actions, including Get Form, Create Form, Create or Update Webhook and Create Theme. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Typeform to Dropbox? Yes. When something happens in Typeform, your agent can act in Dropbox too. This page covers both directions: Typeform's triggers and Dropbox's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Dropbox or Typeform? 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 Dropbox and Typeform 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.
