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.

Common questions
Can Knit build “Text the on-call engineer” between PagerDuty and Telnyx?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches PagerDuty and Telnyx'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 send monitoring alerts by SMS?
Chat and email are easy to miss out of hours. Sending critical PagerDuty alerts through Telnyx gets them onto the on-call engineer's phone.
Can I limit texts to serious alerts?
Yes. Filter on severity or monitor name so only the alerts you choose from PagerDuty are sent through Telnyx.
