Any of Instagram's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Comment, New Media Posted and New Message. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Ideal Postcodes when something happens in Instagram? Any of Ideal Postcodes's 8 actions, including Cleanse address, Find addresses by query, Find places and List addresses by postcode. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Ideal Postcodes to Instagram? Ideal Postcodes has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Instagram. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Ideal Postcodes's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Instagram or Ideal Postcodes? 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 Instagram and Ideal Postcodes 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.
