# Connect Pleo to Football-Data

When **New Employee** fires in [Pleo](https://apiant.ai/connections/pleo), your agent runs **Get area** in [Football-Data](https://apiant.ai/connections/football-data). Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Pleo **2** triggers Pleo **24** actions Football-Data **16** actions

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

## What do you want Pleo and Football-Data 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.

Questions

## Pleo and Football-Data, answered

###

### What can start an automation from Pleo?

Any of Pleo's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Employee and New Tag. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Football-Data when something happens in Pleo?

Any of Football-Data's 16 actions, including Get area, Get competition, Get match and Get match head2head. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Football-Data to Pleo?

Football-Data has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Pleo. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Football-Data's API documentation and adds it.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Pleo or Football-Data?

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 Pleo and Football-Data 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.
