Trigger

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

Action

eBay Autocomplete

Tool to fetch eBay autocomplete suggestions. Use when needing search-term-based suggestions from Countdown API.

Why this helps

Promising product ideas arrive in chat, then get lost while you manually retype them into eBay search.

  • Convert a message into eBay search suggestions.
  • Keep product research moving from the channel where ideas arrive.
  • Avoid manually retyping search phrases.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Countdown api once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the product phrase in each incoming Ably request to fetch eBay autocomplete suggestions and return them with the original phrase.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Ably request containing a product phrase.

Questions about this workflow
