Create an eBay research collection from each staffing report

Keep operational updates and market research moving together after every staffing report.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a new collection

Tool to create a new collection. Use when you need to batch and orchestrate multiple requests on a schedule.

Why this helps

A staffing update can create follow-up research that gets lost between scheduling and browser tabs.

  • Starts a research batch from one staffing update
  • Keeps follow-up work tied to an operational context
  • Reduces manual collection setup

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 7shifts and Countdown api in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Staffing report to eBay collection.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Countdown collection using the research terms and constraints in each 7shifts report.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Send one real staffing report to test the collection creation.

Questions about this workflow

What must the webhook include?

Include the staffing context plus the eBay terms, category, or constraints you want researched.

Does this start the collection too?

No. This workflow creates the collection. Add a separate start step or workflow when you are ready to run it.
