Integration
Connect Switchboard Canvas and Telegram
When New Template fires in Switchboard Canvas, your agent runs Send Message in Telegram, or New Update in Telegram to Create Image in Switchboard Canvas. 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.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

Action
List Template ElementsReturns the elements defined in a template, each with its name and type (text, image or rectangle), so you know which elements you can overwrite.

Questions
Switchboard Canvas and Telegram, answered
What can start an automation from Switchboard Canvas?
Any of Switchboard Canvas's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Template. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Telegram when something happens in Switchboard Canvas?
Any of Telegram's 14 actions, including Send Chat Action, Send Document, Send Location and Send Message. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Telegram to Switchboard Canvas?
Yes. When something happens in Telegram, your agent can act in Switchboard Canvas too. This page covers both directions: Telegram's triggers and Switchboard Canvas's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Switchboard Canvas or Telegram?
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 Switchboard Canvas and Telegram 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.
