Integration
Connect Personio and timelink
When Employee Updated fires in Personio, your agent runs Create Client in timelink, or New Time Entry in timelink to Add project in Personio. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.
What do you want Personio and timelink to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne 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.

Questions
Personio and timelink, answered
What can start an automation from Personio?
Any of Personio's 7 triggers in the catalog, including Employee Updated, Employment Updated, New Absence and New Candidate. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in timelink when something happens in Personio?
Any of timelink's 24 actions, including Create Client, Create Project, Create Service and Create Time Entry. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from timelink to Personio?
Yes. When something happens in timelink, your agent can act in Personio too. This page covers both directions: timelink's triggers and Personio's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Personio or timelink?
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 Personio and timelink 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.
