Build Your First AI Agent

Complete guide to creating, configuring, and deploying AI agents that automate your workflows.

Get Started
1Describe Your Goal1/8
Phase 1Create your agent
01

Describe Your Goal

Tell Kindgi what you want to automate. Describe the end-to-end workflow in a single prompt — mention the trigger, the tools involved, the steps to perform, and what the output should look like.

Prompt

>I want an agent that checks a Google Sheet for candidate entries with interview status pending, automatically picks the next available slot on my Google Calendar and creates an invite for each candidate

What triggers the workflow
A schedule, a new row, or a manual run
Which tools to connect
Google Sheets, Calendar, Gmail, Slack, etc.
Steps to perform
Filter, lookup, create, send — in order
Expected output
An email sent, a row updated, a message posted

You can refine your agent anytime in the Studio. Just get the core idea down and Kindgi handles the rest.

Kindgi Builds Your Agent

Kindgi takes your description, breaks it into steps, figures out which apps are needed, and sets everything up — all automatically. When all checklist items show green checkmarks, click Open in Studio.

Your agent is built in seconds
03

Enter the Agent Studio

The Build tab is your command center. It shows every step your agent will go through, which apps each step uses, and whether they're connected. Use the chat input at the bottom to add, remove, or reorder steps in plain English.

Build
View & edit workflow tasks, connect integrations, refine with natural language
Test
Provide test inputs, run sandboxed executions, inspect task-by-task outputs
Settings
Manage schedules, configure agent details
The Agent Studio — your command center for building, testing, and managing
Phase 2Customize the workflow
04

Connect Your Apps

Steps that need an app you haven't connected yet show an orange Connect badge. Click each badge to sign in, grant permissions, and select your account. Once all badges turn green, you're ready to test. Follow the Setting Up Connections guide for the full walkthrough.

Click
Select any orange Connect badge
Authorize
Sign in and grant permissions
Connected
Badge turns green — ready to use

You only connect once — all future agents reuse the same link. Each step can use a different account if needed.

Setting Up Connections

Full step-by-step walkthrough — sign in, grant access, select accounts

All connected — green badges and full connection count

Phase 3Deploy and automate
07

Track Versions

Every change creates a new version. Open Versions in the Studio header to browse your full history, compare changes, or switch back to an earlier version at any time.

Mark as Live
Set any version as the active production version
Restore
Roll back to a previous version instantly
Use Latest
Switch to the most recent version
Compare
See what changed between versions

Safe to experiment — Restore always creates a new entry, never overwrites history.

Browse, compare, and restore any version
08

Go Live

Head back to your agent page — it shows the current version, run history, and status. Click Run to start processing your real data. A dialog lets you enter your inputs before kicking off.

Your agent is ready to go
Enter your inputs and click Run Agent

You're all set
