Integration
Connect Loop Returns and Shade
When New Return Created fires in Loop Returns, your agent runs Copy a File in Shade, or Asset Updated in Shade to Create Allowlist Item in Loop Returns. 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.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

What can start an automation from Loop Returns?
Any of Loop Returns's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Return Created and Return Status Updated. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Shade when something happens in Loop Returns?
Any of Shade's 7 actions, including Create Folder, Copy a File, Find an Asset and Get Public Links for a File or Folder. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Shade to Loop Returns?
Yes. When something happens in Shade, your agent can act in Loop Returns too. This page covers both directions: Shade's triggers and Loop Returns's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Loop Returns or Shade?
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 Loop Returns and Shade 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.
