Connect iDigBio and Relate
When New record fires in iDigBio, your agent runs Create Contact in Relate, or Contact Created in Relate to Find media records in iDigBio. 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.

Questions
iDigBio and Relate, answered
What can start an automation from iDigBio?
Any of iDigBio's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New record. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Relate when something happens in iDigBio?
Any of Relate's 16 actions, including Create Contact, Create Note, Create Organization and Update Contact. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Relate to iDigBio?
Yes. When something happens in Relate, your agent can act in iDigBio too. This page covers both directions: Relate's triggers and iDigBio's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for iDigBio or Relate?
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 iDigBio and Relate 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.
