# Connect Motion and Ninety

When **New Comment** fires in [Motion](https://apiant.ai/connections/motion), your agent runs **Create Issue** in [Ninety](https://apiant.ai/connections/ninety), or **New Issue Created** in Ninety to **Create Recurring Task** in Motion. 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 Motion and Ninety 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.

Questions

## Motion and Ninety, answered

###

### What can start an automation from Motion?

Any of Motion's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Comment, New or Updated Task, New Project and New Task. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Ninety when something happens in Motion?

Any of Ninety's 21 actions, including Create Issue, Create Milestone, Create Rock and Create To-Do. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Ninety to Motion?

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

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Motion or Ninety?

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 Motion and Ninety 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.
