Integration
Connect CATS and Grafana
When Candidate Updated fires in CATS, your agent runs Add Team Member in Grafana, or New Dashboard in Grafana to Create a Contact in CATS. 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 CATS and Grafana 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.

Questions
CATS and Grafana, answered
What can start an automation from CATS?
Any of CATS's 14 triggers in the catalog, including Candidate Updated, Company Status Changed, Company Updated and Contact Status Changed. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Grafana when something happens in CATS?
Any of Grafana's 24 actions, including Create Alert Rule, Create Annotation, Create Folder and Create or Update Dashboard. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Grafana to CATS?
Yes. When something happens in Grafana, your agent can act in CATS too. This page covers both directions: Grafana's triggers and CATS's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for CATS or Grafana?
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 CATS and Grafana 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.
