Questions
TriNet and Crossref Metadata Search, answered
What can start an automation from TriNet?
Any of TriNet's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New employee approved. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Crossref Metadata Search when something happens in TriNet?
Any of Crossref Metadata Search's 6 actions, including Find funders by query, Find works by query, Get funder and Get journal. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Crossref Metadata Search to TriNet?
Crossref Metadata Search has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in TriNet. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Crossref Metadata Search's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for TriNet or Crossref Metadata Search?
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 TriNet and Crossref Metadata Search 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.
