Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running. Felt **1** trigger Mapbox **8** actions What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Felt and Mapbox 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) Felt is where your team draws and comments on maps; Mapbox is where the geocoding, routing and travel-time work happens. Connecting them means an edit to a Felt map can turn an address into coordinates, pull a route or isochrone, or render a static image in Mapbox without anyone copying points between the two. Example flows ## What Felt can start in Mapbox - When **New or updated map** in Felt then **Get static map image** in Mapbox - When **New or updated map** in Felt then **Query map tile data** in Mapbox Starting points drawn from the triggers and actions in the catalog today. Describe the flow you need, at any depth, and your agent builds it and tests every scenario before it ships. Everything your agent can do with Felt and Mapbox ## Triggers and actions 1 trigger · 8 actions - Trigger **New or updated map** Fires when a map is created or edited (annotations drawn/edited, layers updated, comments added/resolved). Delivered via Felt's map:update webhook, attached per-map and created in Felt workspace settings UI (no REST endpoint to register it); verify the felt-signature HMAC header. See /rest-api/listening-to-updates-using-webhooks. - Action **Geocode address** Converts an address or place text into geographic coordinates using the Mapbox Geocoding API (forward geocoding). Supply either free-text search or the structured address parts. - Action **Get directions** Calculates a route between two to 25 waypoints using the Mapbox Directions API, returning distance, duration, geometry and optional turn-by-turn steps. - Action **Get isochrone** Retrieve up to four travel-time or distance contours (isochrones) around a location as a GeoJSON FeatureCollection. - Action **Get static map image** Renders a static map image from a Mapbox style, centered on a point, fitted to a bounding box, or fitted automatically to markers, paths or GeoJSON drawn on top of it. - Action **Get travel time matrix** Returns travel times (seconds) and/or distances (meters) between up to 25 coordinates using the Mapbox Matrix API. - Action **Optimize route** Returns a duration-optimized route (Traveling Salesperson solution) visiting 2 to 12 coordinates by car, bicycle or on foot. - Action **Query map tile data** Retrieves features from one or more Mapbox vector or rasterarray tilesets at or near a longitude/latitude point. - Action **Reverse geocode coordinates** Look up the address and place names at a longitude/latitude pair using the Mapbox Geocoding API. ## Each app on its own - [ **Felt** Cloud-based GIS platform for creating interactive maps and dashboards from geospatial and database data.](https://apiant.ai/connections/felt) - [ **Mapbox** Mapping and geolocation platform offering interactive maps, geocoding, routing, and navigation APIs.](https://apiant.ai/connections/mapbox) Reviews ## What our customers say ## More from Felt - [ **Felt to capture** capture is a service that is your AI's long-term memory.](https://apiant.ai/connect/felt-to-capture) - [ **Felt to HubSpot** HubSpot is your all-in-one stop for all of your marketing software needs.](https://apiant.ai/connect/felt-to-hubspot) - [ **Felt to Salesforce** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/felt-to-salesforce) - [ **Felt to Slack** Slack is a messaging platform for teams.

Felt reports a map as new or updated when annotations are drawn or edited, layers change, or comments are added or resolved. That single event is what the agent listens to, and it can read the map contents to decide whether to call Mapbox at all. ### ### Can the results from Mapbox be written back onto the Felt map? No, Felt is the trigger side here and has no listed actions, so nothing is written back into the map. The coordinates, routes, isochrones, matrices and static images that Mapbox returns are handed on to whatever you want done with them next. ### ### What can start an automation from Felt? 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 Mapbox when something happens in Felt? Any of Mapbox's 8 actions, including Geocode address, Get directions, Get travel time matrix and Optimize route. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Mapbox to Felt? Mapbox has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Felt. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Mapbox's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Felt or Mapbox? 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 Mapbox without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in Mapbox 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.
