Any of MySQL's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New or Updated Row, New or Updated Row (Custom Query), New Row and New Table. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Mailtrap when something happens in MySQL? Any of Mailtrap's 17 actions, including Send Email, Update Contact, Update Contact list and Update Email campaign. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Mailtrap to MySQL? Mailtrap has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in MySQL. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Mailtrap's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for MySQL or Mailtrap? 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 MySQL and Mailtrap 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.
