Any of Hex's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Project Run, List Groups, List Projects and List Users. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in SmartSuite when something happens in Hex? Any of SmartSuite's 9 actions, including Update Record, Add Comment, Find a Record in SmartSuite and Find Many Records (As Line Items) in SmartSuite. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from SmartSuite to Hex? SmartSuite has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Hex. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads SmartSuite's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Hex or SmartSuite? 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 Hex and SmartSuite 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.
