Connect PPM Express and Xero
When Idea Created fires in PPM Express, your agent runs Add purchase order in Xero, or New bill in Xero to Create Project Task in PPM Express. 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 PPM Express and Xero 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
PPM Express and Xero, answered
What can start an automation from PPM Express?
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 Xero when something happens in PPM Express?
Any of Xero's 26 actions, including Create bank transaction, Create bill, Create or update contact and Create payment. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Xero to PPM Express?
Yes. When something happens in Xero, your agent can act in PPM Express too. This page covers both directions: Xero's triggers and PPM Express's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for PPM Express or Xero?
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 Xero 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.
