No published OpenAPI file and no official SDK.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Activepieces API + MCP\n\n1. Run `ap_validate_flow` before publishing a flow\n2. Use `ap_search_actions` with a plain task description rather than listing pieces\n3. Turn off the Flow Building and Tables groups for a project the agent should only read\n4. Page with `limit` and `cursor` and stop when `next` is null\n5. Cloud runs stop at 10 minutes of active time. Waits and approvals don't count\n\n### Make API + MCP\n\n1. Find the organisation's zone first. It may be on make.com or make.celonis.com\n2. Set scenarios to on-demand scheduling so the MCP server lists them as tools\n3. Use the header form of the MCP token rather than the /mcp/u/\u003ctoken\u003e path form\n4. On a 429, wait a full minute. The limit resets per minute and no Retry-After is sent\n5. Check the `code` field on errors.
