Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running. Wachete **2** triggers Wachete **7** actions GBIF **8** actions What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want Wachete and GBIF to do together? Give your AI client this address. `https://mcp.apiant.ai` One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser. ### Set it up in your client ### Claude Code Run this in the directory you want to work in. `claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai` Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens. [Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code) ### Claude, web and desktop Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Cursor Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Zed Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Any other MCP client Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Describe the flow you need, at any depth, and your agent builds it and tests every scenario before it ships. Everything your agent can do with Wachete and GBIF ## Triggers and actions 2 triggers · 15 actions - Trigger **Any new notification** Fires when there is a new change notification from any monitor in your Wachete account. - Trigger **New notification for monitor** Fires when there is a new change notification from the specified Wachete monitor (taskId). - Action **Create monitor** Create a new Wachete monitor (wachet) that watches a web page or part of a page for changes. - Action **Delete monitor** Delete a Wachete monitor by its ID. - Action **Get monitor** Get information about a specific Wachete monitor by its ID. - Action **Get monitor data** Get the captured data/history for a Wachete monitor, optionally as a diff and within a date range. - Action **List folders** List folder contents, optionally under a parent folder. - Action **List notifications** List change notifications, optionally filtered by monitor (taskId) and date range. - Action **Update monitor** Change the settings of an existing Wachete monitor — name, URL, watched/excluded XPath, regex, note, job type, check frequency and location, crawl options, folder, alerts, notification endpoints, headers and proxies. A partial update: the op first reads the monitor's current record, overlays only the fields you filled in, then writes the merged record back, so anything you leave blank keeps its current value — including settings this op does not expose. Identify the monitor by its id. Check frequency is in seconds (86400 = daily) and is ignored if not positive; the true/false options take the words true or false; alerts, notification endpoints, headers and proxies take JSON. Returns the monitor id, name and URL after the update plus the full monitor record. - Action **Find datasets** Search across all datasets registered with GBIF (occurrence datasets, checklists, etc) by query text, type, publishing org, or country. - Action **Find occurrences** Search occurrence records indexed by GBIF using structured filters (scientific name/taxonKey, country, dataset, date range, geometry, basisOfRecord, etc). - Action **Find species** Full-text search over name usages (species/taxa) in the GBIF Taxonomic Backbone and other checklists. - Action **Get dataset** Retrieve full details of a single GBIF-registered dataset by its key (UUID). - Action **Get occurrence** Retrieve a single occurrence record by its GBIF occurrence id. - Action **Get species** Retrieve a single name usage (species/taxon) record by its GBIF usage key. - Action **Match species name** Fuzzy-match a scientific name string against the GBIF Backbone Taxonomy to resolve it to a canonical taxon key. - Action **Parse scientific name** Parse one or more free-text scientific name strings into their structured components (genus, specificEpithet, authorship, rank, etc) using GBIF's name parser. ## Each app on its own - [ **Wachete** Wachete monitors web pages (or parts of pages) for changes and notifies you when the text changes or...](https://apiant.ai/connections/wachete) - [ **GBIF** GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) publishes an open index of species occurrence records...](https://apiant.ai/connections/gbif) Reviews ## What our customers say ## More from Wachete - [ **Wachete to Salesforce** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-salesforce) - [ **Wachete to ActiveCampaign** ActiveCampaign is a marketing automation, email marketing, and CRM platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-activecampaign) - [ **Wachete to JIRA** Atlassian JIRA Cloud — issue tracking and project management.](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-jira) - [ **Wachete to Zoom** Zoom unifies cloud video conferencing, simple online meetings, group messaging, and a software-based...](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-zoom) - [ **Wachete to Webflow** Webflow is a professional website builder and CMS for designing, building, and launching responsive...](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-webflow) - [ **Wachete to Anthropic** Anthropic builds Claude, a family of large language models.](https://apiant.ai/connect/wachete-to-anthropic) ## More into GBIF - [ **HubSpot to GBIF** HubSpot is your all-in-one stop for all of your marketing software needs.](https://apiant.ai/connect/hubspot-to-gbif) - [ **Salesforce to GBIF** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/salesforce-to-gbif) - [ **Slack to GBIF** Slack is a messaging platform for teams.

Any of Wachete's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New notification for monitor and Any new notification. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in GBIF when something happens in Wachete? Any of GBIF's 8 actions, including Find datasets, Find occurrences, Find species and Get dataset. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from GBIF to Wachete? GBIF has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Wachete. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads GBIF's API documentation and adds it. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Wachete or GBIF? 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 Wachete and GBIF 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.
