# Connect Salesforce and CNBC

When **New object record** fires in [Salesforce](https://apiant.ai/connections/salesforce), your agent runs **Top Stories** in [CNBC](https://apiant.ai/connections/cnbc), or **New Top Story** in CNBC to **Create object record** in Salesforce. 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.

## What do you want Salesforce and CNBC 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.

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

CNBC publishes business, market and earnings stories through its public feeds, and Salesforce holds the accounts, leads and opportunities those stories are about. Joining them lets a new CNBC story land as a record or note on the right Salesforce account, and lets a change in Salesforce pull back the recent CNBC coverage for that company.

Questions

## Salesforce and CNBC, answered

###

### How does a CNBC story get matched to the right Salesforce account?

The CNBC trigger gives you the headline, summary and link, and you can search Salesforce with Find object records or a SOQL query on a field such as Account Name. If nothing matches, the run can stop instead of creating a stray record, and the agent tests each scenario before it goes live.

###

### Can I limit which CNBC stories reach Salesforce?

Yes, the New Top Story trigger works on a chosen CNBC category feed, so you can watch earnings or markets rather than everything. You can add a condition on the headline or on the matched Salesforce record before any create or update step runs.

###

### What can start an automation from Salesforce?

Any of Salesforce's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New object record and New or updated object record. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in CNBC when something happens in Salesforce?

Any of CNBC's 1 action, including Top Stories. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from CNBC to Salesforce?

Yes. When something happens in CNBC, your agent can act in Salesforce too. This page covers both directions: CNBC's triggers and Salesforce's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Salesforce or CNBC?

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 Salesforce and CNBC 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.
