Integration

Connect FreeAgent and Knack

When New Contact fires in FreeAgent, your agent runs Create Record in Knack, or New View Record in Knack to Create Contact in FreeAgent. 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.

Connect your AI client

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.

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.

FreeAgent holds the contacts, invoices, projects and timeslips; Knack holds the custom objects your team works in every day. Connecting them means a new FreeAgent project or invoice can land as a record in the right Knack object, and records approved in a Knack view can create contacts or timeslips back in FreeAgent.

Questions

FreeAgent and Knack, answered

Can the agent check whether a client already exists in Knack before creating anything?

Yes. It can list records from your Knack object and filter on the client name, then create the new record only when a match is found. You decide what happens when nothing matches.

Does this work with Knack pages and views, not just raw objects?

It does. The agent can watch a view for new records and read, create or update records through that view, so your view's permissions and filters still apply. It can also work directly against an object when that suits better.

What can start an automation from FreeAgent?

Any of FreeAgent's 6 triggers in the catalog, including New Contact, New Invoice, New Project and New Bank Transaction. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

What can your agent do in Knack when something happens in FreeAgent?

Any of Knack's 11 actions, including Create Record, Create View Record, Update Record and Update View Record. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can it also run from Knack to FreeAgent?

Yes. When something happens in Knack, your agent can act in FreeAgent too. This page covers both directions: Knack's triggers and FreeAgent's actions are listed here as well.

Do I have to build a connector for FreeAgent or Knack?

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 FreeAgent and Knack 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.
