Any of Grist's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New or Updated Record, New or Updated Record (Instant), New Record and New Record (Instant). Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Omnisend when something happens in Grist? Any of Omnisend's 36 actions, including Create Campaign, Create Subscriber, Send Customer Event and Update Campaign. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Omnisend to Grist? Yes. When something happens in Omnisend, your agent can act in Grist too. This page covers both directions: Omnisend's triggers and Grist's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Grist or Omnisend? 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 Grist and Omnisend 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.
