Integration
Connect Motion and Outline
When New Comment fires in Motion, your agent runs Update comment in Outline, or New Collection in Outline 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.
Build solutions, not workarounds.
What do you want Motion and Outline to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne 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.

Questions
Motion and Outline, 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 Outline when something happens in Motion?
Any of Outline's 32 actions, including Create Collection, Create Document, Update Collection and Update comment. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Outline to Motion?
Yes. When something happens in Outline, your agent can act in Motion too. This page covers both directions: Outline's triggers and Motion's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Motion or Outline?
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 Outline 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.
