# Connect JotForm and Knack

When **New Form Submission** fires in [JotForm](https://apiant.ai/connections/jotform), your agent runs **Create Record** in [Knack](https://apiant.ai/connections/knack), or **New View Record** in Knack to **Clone Form** in JotForm. 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.

## What do you want JotForm and Knack 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.

### 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.

JotForm collects the submissions; Knack holds the records your team works from. Connecting them means a form entry can be checked against your Knack objects, written in as a record, and the submission updated with what Knack returns. It also works the other way, so a new record in a Knack view can start a JotForm submission or form.

Questions

## JotForm and Knack, answered

###

### Can I check whether someone already exists in Knack before creating a record?

Yes. On a new JotForm submission the agent can use List Records to look for a match in your Knack object, then use Create Record only when nothing comes back. It can also use Update Record instead when a matching record is found.

###

### Will a Knack record ever feed back into JotForm?

Yes. The New View Record trigger in Knack can lead to actions such as Create Submission, Edit Submission Data or Clone Form in JotForm. The agent tests each scenario before it goes live and keeps it running afterwards.

###

### What can start an automation from JotForm?

Any of JotForm's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Form Submission and New Form Submission (instant). Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Knack when something happens in JotForm?

Any of Knack's 11 actions, including Create Record, List Records, Upload File or Image and Create View Record. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Knack to JotForm?

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

###

### Do I have to build a connector for JotForm or Knack?

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 JotForm and Knack 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.
