When New Form Submission fires in FormBackend, your agent runs Find Events in Newsflash, or New corroborated event in Newsflash to Create Form in FormBackend. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.
