Any of Felt's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New or updated map. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Amazon EC2 when something happens in Felt? Any of Amazon EC2's 2 actions, including Find Instance and Start/Stop Instance. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Amazon EC2 to Felt? Amazon EC2 has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Felt. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Amazon EC2's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Felt or Amazon EC2? 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 Felt and Amazon EC2 without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in Amazon EC2 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.
