Keep unverified contact emails out of your Algolia index
Send new contact details to Notis. Abstract checks the email, and Algolia gets an up-to-date record when it passes.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add or Replace Record
Creates a record in an index or replaces the existing record with the same ID.
Why this helps
Manually checking email quality before each contact import slows down follow-up and lets bad addresses into search.
- Catch invalid email addresses before indexing them.
- Keep a contact record current by using its stable object ID.
- Review run reports in the channel you choose.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to validate each incoming contact email with Abstract and add or replace the Algolia contact record only when valid.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one real contact.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it with the contact details to check.
What happens when Abstract reports an invalid email?
The instruction can tell Notis to skip the Algolia update and include the validation result in the run report.
Does this create duplicate contacts?
Use a stable object ID for each contact so Algolia replaces the matching record instead of creating another one.
