Why this helps
Following a fast-moving event stream makes it harder to pause and verify what a website runs right now.
- Check live web technologies for an event's root domain.
- Keep event triage and domain research in one flow.
- Avoid running a separate manual lookup for each relevant event.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and BuiltWith once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation and enter a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to validate the root domain from the event and run a BuiltWith MCP API Lookup.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and set the Ably event sender to call the Notis endpoint; select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real event that contains a valid root domain.
Questions about this workflow
How is this different from a Domain API Lookup?
The MCP API Lookup queries live web technologies for a root domain. The Domain API Lookup retrieves current and historical technology information.
Can it run without a domain in the event?
The root domain must be supplied and validated before the lookup can run.
