Any of SurveyMonkey's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Response Notification and New Response Notification With Answers. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Zendesk when something happens in SurveyMonkey? Any of Zendesk's 18 actions, including Create Organization, Create Ticket, Create User and Update Organization. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Zendesk to SurveyMonkey? Yes. When something happens in Zendesk, your agent can act in SurveyMonkey too. This page covers both directions: Zendesk's triggers and SurveyMonkey's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for SurveyMonkey or Zendesk? 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 SurveyMonkey and Zendesk 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.
