Apply character backstory revisions from Ably

Keep an approved backstory change from getting buried in a channel by sending it to Notis for the existing character.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Character Backstory

Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.

Why this helps

Small character history changes can be overlooked when decisions are made in chat and updates happen elsewhere.

  • Apply supplied backstory changes to an existing character.
  • Keep the revision connected to an explicit request.
  • Reduce manual re-entry after a decision in chat.

  • 1Connect Ably and Convolo AI once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to update only the supplied backstory fields for the identified character.
  • 3Pick the notis_webhook trigger and send an HTTP request when a revision is approved.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real character ID and a reviewed backstory revision.
