Connect Knack and Ontraport
When New View Record fires in Knack, your agent runs Create Task in Ontraport, or New Task in Ontraport to Create Record in Knack. 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.

Setup guide (opens in a new tab)If your team tracks members, jobs or applications in Knack and runs marketing and billing in Ontraport, joining the two keeps both sides current. New records in a Knack view can create or update Ontraport contacts, add tags and open tasks, while new Ontraport contacts, tasks and transactions can write rows back into your Knack objects.

Questions
Knack and Ontraport, answered
Will a Knack record create a duplicate contact in Ontraport?
No. The agent can run Find Contact by Email first, and Create or Update Contact merges into the existing contact when the email already exists in Ontraport. A new contact is only created when there is no email match.
Can the Knack record be updated after Ontraport responds?
Yes. After the Ontraport action runs, the agent can use Update Record or Update View Record in Knack to write back the Ontraport contact ID or a status field. View-based updates respect the view's permissions and filters.
What can start an automation from Knack?
Any of Knack's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New View Record. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Ontraport when something happens in Knack?
Any of Ontraport's 14 actions, including Create Object, Create Task, Find Contact by Email and Create or Update Contact. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Ontraport to Knack?
Yes. When something happens in Ontraport, your agent can act in Knack too. This page covers both directions: Ontraport's triggers and Knack's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Knack or Ontraport?
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 Knack and Ontraport 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.
