How Knit builds this workflow

The Agent researches both APIs and wires the trigger on one side to the action on the other — no pre-built connector required. Here is the vocabulary it has to work with.

FAQ

Common questions

Can Knit build “Share uploaded files automatically across team tools” between Flock and AnswerFirst?

Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Flock and AnswerFirst's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.

How long does it take to build?

Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.

Why connect two separate team messaging apps?

Organizations often use multiple chat applications across departments or with external partners; connecting AnswerFirst and Flock ensures messages and files cross over without manual copying.

Can channels stay synced across both applications?

Yes, when a new channel is created or a message is posted in AnswerFirst, an equivalent channel or message can automatically be created in Flock.
