Any of Ontraport's 5 triggers in the catalog, including New Contact, New or Updated Contact, New Task and New Transaction. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in PeopleForce when something happens in Ontraport? Any of PeopleForce's 18 actions, including Create Candidate, Create Employee, Create Employee Position and Create Employee Salary. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from PeopleForce to Ontraport? PeopleForce has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Ontraport. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads PeopleForce's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Ontraport or PeopleForce? 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 PeopleForce 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.
