Questions
Switchboard Canvas and Visual Crossing, 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 Visual Crossing when something happens in Switchboard Canvas?
Any of Visual Crossing's 2 actions, including Get historical weather and Get weather forecast. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Visual Crossing to Switchboard Canvas?
Visual Crossing has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Switchboard Canvas. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Visual Crossing's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Switchboard Canvas or Visual Crossing?
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 Visual Crossing 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.
