• Trigger
  New View Record

  Fires when a new record appears in a Knack page view — polls a view's records (respects the view's access control and filters), the view-based counterpart to New Record.

• Action
  Create Record

  Add a new record to a Knack object. Provide field values as a JSON object keyed by field key (e.g. field_1).

• Action
  Create View Record

  create a record through a view, including inserting a connected record (view-based)

• Action
  Delete Record

  Delete a record from a Knack object by ID.

• Action
  Delete View Record

  delete a record through a view (view-based)

• Action
  Get Record

  Retrieve a single record by ID from a Knack object.

• Action
  Get View Record

  Retrieve a single record through a page view by its ID — returns only the fields exposed by the view and respects the view's access control, the view-based counterpart to Get Record.

• Action
  List Records

  Retrieve records from a Knack object, with optional paging and filters.

• Action
  List View Records

  retrieve records through a view (view-based, applies view permissions/filters)

• Action
  Update Record

  Update an existing record in a Knack object by ID.

• Action
  Update View Record

  update a record through a view (view-based)

• Action
  Upload File or Image

  upload a file or image asset to associate with a record field

• Action
  Find datasets

  Search across all datasets registered with GBIF (occurrence datasets, checklists, etc) by query text, type, publishing org, or country. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/search?q=&type=&publishingCountry=&limit=&offset=. Returns a paged list of matching dataset summaries (key, title, type, publishingOrganizationKey).

• Action
  Find occurrences

  Search occurrence records indexed by GBIF using structured filters (scientific name/taxonKey, country, dataset, date range, geometry, basisOfRecord, etc). GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=&taxonKey=&country=&limit=&offset=. Returns a paged list of matching occurrence records (species observations/specimens with location, date, recordedBy, etc). Max 300 records per page, hard offset+limit cap of 100,000.

• Action
  Find species

  Full-text search over name usages (species/taxa) in the GBIF Taxonomic Backbone and other checklists. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/search?q={query}&rank=&status=&highertaxon_key=&limit=&offset=. Returns paged list of matching name usages (key, scientificName, rank, kingdom, etc).

• Action
  Get dataset

  Retrieve full details of a single GBIF-registered dataset by its key (UUID). GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/{key}. Returns dataset metadata: title, description, type, license, publishingOrganizationKey, doi, citation, etc.

• Action
  Get occurrence

  Retrieve a single occurrence record by its GBIF occurrence id. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/{gbifId}. Returns the full occurrence record: taxonomy, location (lat/lon/country), event date, recordedBy, dataset, media, etc.

• Action
  Get species

  Retrieve a single name usage (species/taxon) record by its GBIF usage key. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/{usageKey}. Returns full taxonomic details (scientificName, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, rank, taxonomicStatus, synonym, etc).

• Action
  Match species name

  Fuzzy-match a scientific name string against the GBIF Backbone Taxonomy to resolve it to a canonical taxon key. GET https://api.gbif.org/v2/species/match?name={name}&rank=&kingdom=. Returns the best-matching usageKey/scientificName plus a confidence score and match type (EXACT/FUZZY/HIGHERRANK/NONE) — the standard way to resolve a free-text species name into a stable GBIF key.

• Action
  Parse scientific name

  Parse one or more free-text scientific name strings into their structured components (genus, specificEpithet, authorship, rank, etc) using GBIF's name parser. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/parser/name?name={name} (repeat name= for multiple). Returns a list of ParsedName objects — useful for cleaning/normalizing user-entered species names before other lookups.

No trigger or action matches that. Ask your agent to add it: it reads the API documentation and builds what you describe.
