# Connect Lokalise and ServiceM8

When **Contributor Added** fires in [Lokalise](https://apiant.ai/connections/lokalise), your agent runs **Add company contact** in [ServiceM8](https://apiant.ai/connections/servicem8), or **New Job** in ServiceM8 to **Create a Task** in Lokalise. 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 Lokalise and ServiceM8 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)

### 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.

Questions

## Lokalise and ServiceM8, answered

###

### What can start an automation from Lokalise?

Any of Lokalise's 16 triggers in the catalog, including Contributor Added, Contributor Removed, Key Added and Key Comment Added. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in ServiceM8 when something happens in Lokalise?

Any of ServiceM8's 23 actions, including Create Client, Create Job, Update client and Update job. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from ServiceM8 to Lokalise?

Yes. When something happens in ServiceM8, your agent can act in Lokalise too. This page covers both directions: ServiceM8's triggers and Lokalise's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Lokalise or ServiceM8?

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 Lokalise and ServiceM8 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.

###
