# Connect Personio and ProjectManager

When **Employee Updated** fires in [Personio](https://apiant.ai/connections/personio), your agent runs **Create Task** in [ProjectManager](https://apiant.ai/connections/projectmanager), or **New Project** in ProjectManager to **Add project** in Personio. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Personio **7** triggers Personio **20** actions ProjectManager **3** triggers ProjectManager **23** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Personio and ProjectManager to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One 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.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.
