Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Klaviyo 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.

Connecting the two lets a Klaviyo event or profile update land in the right Slack channel or DM, and lets messages and new workspace members in Slack create, update or subscribe profiles in Klaviyo.

Yes. The Klaviyo New Event trigger can be followed by Get Profile by ID or Get Profile by Email, so the message you send in Slack can include the person's name, email and other profile fields. ### ### Can something said in Slack change a subscriber's status in Klaviyo? Yes. A message posted to a chosen Slack channel can run Subscribe Profile, Create or Update Profile, Add Profile to List or Suppress Profile in Klaviyo, as long as the message carries the email address to match on. ### ### What can start an automation from Klaviyo? Any of Klaviyo's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Event and New or Updated Profile. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Slack when something happens in Klaviyo? 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 Klaviyo? Yes. When something happens in Slack, your agent can act in Klaviyo too. This page covers both directions: Slack's triggers and Klaviyo's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Klaviyo 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 Klaviyo 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.
