Questions
Shade and Loop & Tie, answered
Can a run start in Loop & Tie?
No, Loop & Tie has no triggers here, so every run starts with an event in Shade such as a new asset, a finished transcription or a new public share link. Loop & Tie is read from during the run, with actions like List Teams, List Collections, List Designs and Get Collection.
What does the agent check before it goes live?
It tests every scenario you describe, including the case where the Loop & Tie lookup comes back with no matching collection or design. It also confirms the Shade side works, such as sharing a folder with the people and role you named.
What can start an automation from Shade?
Any of Shade's 7 triggers in the catalog, including Asset Updated, New Asset, New Collection and New Public Share Link. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Loop & Tie when something happens in Shade?
Any of Loop & Tie's 4 actions, including Get Collection, List Collections, List Designs and List Teams. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Loop & Tie to Shade?
Loop & Tie has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Shade. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Loop & Tie's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Shade or Loop & Tie?
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 Shade and Loop & Tie 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.
