Why this helps

Finding a usable visual can mean switching between the conversation where it was requested and the media library.

  • Keep the original asset request alongside search results.
  • Find possible existing files before preparing new assets.
  • Reduce manual browsing through uploaded media.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Dotsimple once through the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Dotsimple media files for assets matching the incoming Ably request and list candidates.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Send one real asset request and check the returned media details.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow upload or attach a file to a post?

No. It lists media files so you can review possible matches. Uploading and attaching media are not available actions here.

What if the media library is paginated?

The action supports optional pagination. The instruction can ask Notis to inspect the relevant pages, subject to the data available in the run.
