Clear your Ably contact backlog on a schedule
Let Notis gather eligible contact requests from a chosen Ably channel and start a Dropcontact enrichment run at a cadence that suits your team.

Why this helps
Contact details accumulate in channels while you wait for a quiet moment to collect and research them.
- Process a backlog without searching through channel history by hand.
- Start asynchronous enrichment for up to 250 contacts per request.
- Keep the schedule focused on a channel and contact criteria you specify.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Dropcontact once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis which Ably channel and time window to review, how to identify eligible contact requests, and to initiate Dropcontact enrichment for batches of up to 250.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and review the prompt before starting.
- 5Test with one real channel and inspect the request details in the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Does this start automatically from an Ably event?
No. A Notis recurring schedule starts the workflow. Notis then uses the Ably connection to review the channel you named.
What does the Dropcontact action return?
It starts asynchronous enrichment and returns a request ID. That ID is needed to retrieve the completed enrichment results.
Can one run process an unlimited number of contacts?
No. Initiate Contact Enrichment supports up to 250 contacts per request. Tell Notis how to handle a larger backlog across requests.
