Use an agent to recheck Southwest fares

A poster asked Dot to look up Southwest flights and revisit the prices later, but the credentialed connection was shaky at first.

What they did
They connected Dot to Southwest and asked it to check flights between two places. The agent stalled on the task and seemed to struggle whenever a service required credentials, with the poster saying it often needed a manual connection step instead of linking cleanly on its own. Later, they reported that the Southwest check did eventually go through.
How it went
The first attempt did not finish the job, which left the poster unsure the tool was ready for important personal tasks. Since it later succeeded, the failure appears to have been a temporary technical problem rather than a hard limit.
Tips
If a task depends on an account login, expect extra setup and possible hiccups. Keep the request read-only unless you explicitly need to book, pay, or submit anything.

Try it yourself with Dots

Connect to my Southwest account if needed, then check flights from [origin] to [destination] on [dates]. Give me the cheapest options with departure times and prices, then check again after [time interval] and tell me whether anything changed. Stop before any booking, payment, or submission and ask for my approval first.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
