Questions
Forecast and Shape, answered
What can start an automation from Forecast?
Any of Forecast's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Client, New Project and New Task in Project. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Shape when something happens in Forecast?
Any of Shape's 16 actions, including Create Record, Update Record, Update Status and Add Calendar Event. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Shape to Forecast?
Yes. When something happens in Shape, your agent can act in Forecast too. This page covers both directions: Shape's triggers and Forecast's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Forecast or Shape?
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 Forecast and Shape 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.
