Find a Chaser customer from an Ably-connected request

Give an agent a reliable way to request a specific customer record by external ID, without searching through the whole customer list.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Customer by ID

Tool to retrieve details for a specific customer by their external (source system) id. use after obtaining the external id when you need specific customer information.

Why this helps

Finding one customer in a separate billing tool interrupts the conversation and creates room for mismatches.

  • Retrieve specific customer details from a supplied external ID.
  • Avoid scanning the full customer list for one record.
  • Flag requests that lack a usable identifier.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Chaser once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the Chaser customer for the supplied external ID and report when it is missing.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real customer lookup request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this search by name or email?

The available action retrieves a customer by its external source-system ID. Supply that ID in the request.

Does this return every customer?

No. It retrieves details for a specific customer. Chaser has a separate action for listing customers.

What if the ID is not provided?

Have Notis report that the external ID is needed before it attempts the lookup.
