Any of PPM Express's 8 triggers in the catalog, including Idea Created, Key Date Created, Key Date Updated and Project Created. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Slite when something happens in PPM Express? Any of Slite's 12 actions, including Ask Question, Fetch Doc, Fetch Sub Docs and Find groups by query. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Slite to PPM Express? Slite has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in PPM Express. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Slite's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for PPM Express or Slite? 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 PPM Express and Slite 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.
