Any of Telegram's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Update. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Airweave when something happens in Telegram? Any of Airweave's 10 actions, including Update collection, Update source connection, Add collection and Add source connection. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Airweave to Telegram? Airweave has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Telegram. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Airweave's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Telegram or Airweave? 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 Telegram and Airweave 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.
