Any of Flodesk's 15 actions, including Create/Update Subscriber, Add custom field, Add Existing Subscriber to Segment and Add Existing Subscriber to Workflow. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Flodesk to Ontraport? Flodesk has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Ontraport. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Flodesk's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Ontraport or Flodesk? 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 Ontraport and Flodesk 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.
