Build it
What do you want Roam and GBIF to do together?
Describe it and your agent reads both APIs, builds the automation, tests every branch and ships it. The list below is what exists today, not the limit.
Ask the assistant
You'll sign in before anything runs. What you typed comes with you.
Or work from Claude Code
Install the APIANT plugin for Claude Code and build, edit, test and read run history from your terminal. Every plan gets this, including free, and it spends no assistant credits.

Action
Create Meeting LinkCreates a new Roam meeting link and returns its ID and shareable URL. Optionally set the host's email and the meeting's start and end times.
Action
Find User by EmailLooks up a member of your Roam organization by their email address and returns their profile, including user ID, name, photo and admin status.
Action
On-Air: Add GuestAdds a guest to a Roam On-Air event by email, optionally setting their name, phone and RSVP status, and returns the created guest.
Action
On-Air: Find EventReturns the On-Air events whose title contains the text you search for, taken from your most recent events. Returns an empty list when nothing matches.
Action
Send Channel MessagePosts a message to a Roam channel and returns the message's timestamp, which you can reuse to reply in the same thread.
Action
Send Direct MessageSends a direct message to one person in Roam and returns the conversation ID plus the message's timestamp, which you can reuse to reply in the same thread.
Action
Find datasetsSearch across all datasets registered with GBIF (occurrence datasets, checklists, etc) by query text, type, publishing org, or country. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/search?q=&type=&publishingCountry=&limit=&offset=. Returns a paged list of matching dataset summaries (key, title, type, publishingOrganizationKey).
Action
Find occurrencesSearch occurrence records indexed by GBIF using structured filters (scientific name/taxonKey, country, dataset, date range, geometry, basisOfRecord, etc). GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/search?q=&taxonKey=&country=&limit=&offset=. Returns a paged list of matching occurrence records (species observations/specimens with location, date, recordedBy, etc). Max 300 records per page, hard offset+limit cap of 100,000.
Action
Find speciesFull-text search over name usages (species/taxa) in the GBIF Taxonomic Backbone and other checklists. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/search?q={query}&rank=&status=&highertaxon_key=&limit=&offset=. Returns paged list of matching name usages (key, scientificName, rank, kingdom, etc).
Action
Get datasetRetrieve full details of a single GBIF-registered dataset by its key (UUID). GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/dataset/{key}. Returns dataset metadata: title, description, type, license, publishingOrganizationKey, doi, citation, etc.
Action
Get occurrenceRetrieve a single occurrence record by its GBIF occurrence id. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/{gbifId}. Returns the full occurrence record: taxonomy, location (lat/lon/country), event date, recordedBy, dataset, media, etc.
Action
Get speciesRetrieve a single name usage (species/taxon) record by its GBIF usage key. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/{usageKey}. Returns full taxonomic details (scientificName, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, rank, taxonomicStatus, synonym, etc).
Action
Match species nameFuzzy-match a scientific name string against the GBIF Backbone Taxonomy to resolve it to a canonical taxon key. GET https://api.gbif.org/v2/species/match?name={name}&rank=&kingdom=. Returns the best-matching usageKey/scientificName plus a confidence score and match type (EXACT/FUZZY/HIGHERRANK/NONE) — the standard way to resolve a free-text species name into a stable GBIF key.
Action
Parse scientific nameParse one or more free-text scientific name strings into their structured components (genus, specificEpithet, authorship, rank, etc) using GBIF's name parser. GET https://api.gbif.org/v1/parser/name?name={name} (repeat name= for multiple). Returns a list of ParsedName objects — useful for cleaning/normalizing user-entered species names before other lookups.
No trigger or action matches that. Ask your agent to add it: it reads the API documentation and builds what you describe.
