Understand an Actor API schema faster
Fetch the OpenAPI definition for a specific build, then use Abstract to turn the schema into a focused explanation.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get OpenAPI Definition
Retrieves the OpenAPI definition for an Actor build.
Why this helps
Reading a full API schema takes time when you only need to understand one workflow or endpoint.
- Retrieve the API definition for a specific Actor build.
- Focus the explanation on a use case you provide.
- Reduce time spent scanning a full schema manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Apify once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe which build schema to retrieve and what to explain.
- 3Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real Actor build and a concrete use case.
Questions about this workflow
What is needed to retrieve the definition?
Specify the Actor build for which you need the OpenAPI definition.
Will it generate working API code?
