Integration
Connect Algolia and AWS Lambda
When Browse Records fires in Algolia, your agent runs Invoke Function (Async) in AWS Lambda, or New Function in AWS Lambda to Add or Replace Record in Algolia. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.
What do you want Algolia and AWS Lambda to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne 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.aiStart Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.
Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)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)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)Zed
Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)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)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.

Everything your agent can do with Algolia and AWS Lambda
Triggers and actions 2 triggers · 30 actions
Trigger
Browse RecordsTriggers when a new record appears in an Algolia index, optionally limited to records matching a query or filter.
Action
Add or Replace RecordAdds a record to an Algolia index, or replaces the existing record with the same object ID.

Batch Multiple IndicesAdds, updates, or deletes records across multiple Algolia indices in a single request.
Action
Batch Save Query RulesCreates or replaces several query rules on an Algolia index in one call, optionally clearing the existing rules first.
Action
Batch Save SynonymsCreates or replaces a batch of synonyms on an Algolia index.
Action
Check Task StatusReturns whether an Algolia indexing task on an index has finished (published) or is still pending.
Action
Clear All SynonymsDeletes all synonyms from an Algolia index.
Action
Clear Index (Delete All Records)Deletes every record from an Algolia index while keeping its settings, synonyms and rules.
Action
Copy or Move IndexCopies or moves (renames) an Algolia index to a destination index within the same application.
Action
Delete IndexDeletes an Algolia index together with all its records and settings.
Action
Delete Query RuleDeletes a query rule from an Algolia index by its ID.
Action
Delete RecordDeletes a single record from an Algolia index by its object ID.
Action
Delete Records by QueryDeletes every record in an Algolia index that matches a filter. The deletion is queued as a task; empty filters are refused.
Action
Delete SynonymDeletes a synonym from an Algolia index by its ID.
Action
Find Query RuleReturns a single query rule from an Algolia index by its rule ID, including its conditions and consequence.
Action
Find RecordReturns one record from an Algolia index by its object ID.
Action
Find SynonymFinds a synonym in an Algolia index by its ID and returns its type, words and replacements.
Action
Get Index SettingsReturns the settings configured on an Algolia index, such as searchable attributes, ranking and faceting.
Action
Get Records (Batch)Retrieves one or more records by object ID, potentially from different indices, in a single call.
Action
List IndicesReturns all indices in your Algolia application, with each index's name, record count, size and last-updated time.
Action
Partial Update RecordAdds new attributes to an Algolia record or updates existing ones, leaving the other attributes unchanged.
Action
Save Record (Auto Object ID)Adds a record to an Algolia index with an auto-generated object ID, or replaces the record if the given object ID already exists.
Action
Save SynonymCreates a synonym in an Algolia index, or replaces the existing synonym with the same ID.
Action
Search for Facet ValuesSearches the values of a facet attribute in an index and returns the matching facet values with their record counts.
Action
Search IndexSearches one Algolia index and returns the matching records (hits) with result counts.
Action
Search Multiple IndicesRuns several search queries against one or more indices in a single request and returns each query's results in the same order.
Action
Search SynonymsSearches the synonyms of an Algolia index by text and optional synonym type, returning the matching synonyms and the total match count.
Action
Update Index SettingsUpdates the settings of an Algolia index, such as searchable attributes, faceting, ranking and typo tolerance. Settings you leave blank are not changed.
Trigger
New FunctionTriggers when a new AWS Lambda function is created in the connected region.
Action
Invoke Function (Async)Starts an AWS Lambda function with the data you provide and continues without waiting for it to finish.
Action
Invoke Function (Sync)Runs an AWS Lambda function with the data you provide, waits for it to finish, and returns what it returned.
No trigger or action matches that. Ask your agent to add it: it reads the API documentation and builds what you describe.

Questions
Algolia and AWS Lambda, answered
What can start an automation from Algolia?
Any of Algolia's 1 trigger in the catalog, including Browse Records. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in AWS Lambda when something happens in Algolia?
Any of AWS Lambda's 2 actions, including Invoke Function (Async) and Invoke Function (Sync). Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from AWS Lambda to Algolia?
Yes. When something happens in AWS Lambda, your agent can act in Algolia too. This page covers both directions: AWS Lambda's triggers and Algolia's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Algolia or AWS Lambda?
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 Algolia and AWS Lambda 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.
