# Connect HelloSign and Slack

When **New Signature Request** fires in [HelloSign](https://apiant.ai/connections/hellosign), your agent runs **Send Direct Message** in [Slack](https://apiant.ai/connections/slack), or **New File (instant)** in Slack to **Get Signature Request Files** in HelloSign. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

HelloSign **1** trigger HelloSign **8** actions Slack **15** triggers Slack **60** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want HelloSign and Slack 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.

Slack is where your team talks about deals and paperwork; HelloSign is where the signing actually happens. Connecting them means a new signature request can show up in the right channel with the signer and document details, and a nudge in Slack can send a reminder or start a new request without anyone opening a second tab.

Questions

## HelloSign and Slack, answered

###

### What can start an automation on the HelloSign side?

HelloSign offers one trigger, New Signature Request, which fires when a new request appears in the account. From there the agent can fetch the request details, list templates or download the documents, and post what matters into Slack.

###

### Can we chase signers from Slack?

Yes. A reaction, message or file event in Slack can call HelloSign's Send Reminder for a pending signer, or Cancel Signature Request when a deal falls through. The agent tests each scenario with your own channels and requests before it goes live.

###

### What can start an automation from HelloSign?

Any of HelloSign's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Signature Request. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Slack when something happens in HelloSign?

Any of Slack's 60 actions, including Create Reminder, Send Direct Message, Create Canvas and Create Channel. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Slack to HelloSign?

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

###

### Do I have to build a connector for HelloSign or Slack?

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 HelloSign and Slack 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.
