# Connect Square to Award Force

When **New order** fires in [Square](https://apiant.ai/connections/square), your agent runs **Create Review Task** in [Award Force](https://apiant.ai/connections/award-force). Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Square **3** triggers Square **19** actions Award Force **15** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Square and Award Force 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.

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.

Questions

## Square and Award Force, answered

###

### What can start an automation from Square?

Any of Square's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New order, New or updated customer and New payment. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in Award Force when something happens in Square?

Any of Award Force's 15 actions, including Create Assignment, Create Review Task, Create User and Update User. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from Award Force to Square?

Award Force has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Square. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Award Force's API documentation and adds it.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Square or Award Force?

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 Square and Award Force 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.
