Integration
Connect Aplos and Salesforce
When New contact fires in Aplos, your agent runs Create object record in Salesforce, or New object record in Salesforce to Find contacts in Aplos. 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 Aplos and Salesforce 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.

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.
Setup guide (opens in a new tab)Aplos holds the giving record — contacts, contributions, funds and purposes — while Salesforce holds the relationship history your team works from. Connecting them means a gift recorded in Aplos can show up on the right Salesforce Contact or Opportunity, and a donor added or changed in either place can be reflected in the other.

Questions
Aplos and Salesforce, answered
How does the agent avoid creating duplicate Contacts in Salesforce for an existing donor?
The agent uses Find object records to look for a Salesforce Contact by email before it writes anything, and only creates a record when no match comes back. It tests every scenario, including a donor who already exists and one who does not.
Can a contribution in Aplos include the donor and purpose when it reaches Salesforce?
Yes. The New contribution trigger gives the contribution ID, and Get contribution reads back the donors, purposes and amounts so those values can be written onto the Salesforce record you choose.
What can start an automation from Aplos?
Any of Aplos's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New contact, New contribution and New or updated contact. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Salesforce when something happens in Aplos?
Any of Salesforce's 9 actions, including Create object record, Update object record, Find most recent created or updated record and Describe object. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Salesforce to Aplos?
Yes. When something happens in Salesforce, your agent can act in Aplos too. This page covers both directions: Salesforce's triggers and Aplos's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Aplos or Salesforce?
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 Aplos and Salesforce 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.
