Get details for a Contentful space from Ably

When a space id is at hand, ask Notis to fetch that Contentful space's details and return them in your run report channel.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get space

Retrieves details of a specific space by its id. this action is used to get information about a single space in contentful.

Why this helps

Checking basic space details interrupts the task at hand when the identifier and context are already in an Ably conversation.

  • Retrieve one space's details from a supplied id
  • Keep the lookup close to the Ably request
  • Avoid searching through Contentful to confirm basic information

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Contentful Space Detail Lookup.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the space id included in the incoming request to retrieve and summarize that space's details.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request and a valid Contentful space id.
