Any of Particle's 5 actions, including Execute a logic function, Get ledger instance, List devices and Publish an event. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Particle to Outlign? Yes. When something happens in Particle, your agent can act in Outlign too. This page covers both directions: Particle's triggers and Outlign's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Outlign or Particle? 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 Outlign and Particle 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.
