Any of Vision6's 4 triggers in the catalog, including Contact Was Added, Contact Was Updated, Contact Was Deactivated and Contact Was Unsubscribed. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Oikolab when something happens in Vision6? Any of Oikolab's 5 actions, including Generate EPW file, Get account usage, Get weather data and List datasets. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Oikolab to Vision6? Oikolab has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Vision6. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Oikolab's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Vision6 or Oikolab? 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 Vision6 and Oikolab 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.
