Turn an Abstract request into a focused Beeminder goal review
Send a short request through the webhook, retrieve your active Beeminder goals, and use Abstract to help organize the review around what you need to decide.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get all goals
Lists all goals for a user.
Why this helps
A long list of goals can make it hard to spot which one needs attention when you have a specific question to resolve.
- Bring active goals into a review started by your request.
- Use a text-processing instruction to keep the review focused.
- Reduce the effort of reopening and scanning goals manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to process your review request alongside your active Beeminder goals.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real review request and check the returned goals.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
A webhook starts it when an HTTP request is sent. Abstract does not provide a trigger event for this workflow.
Does it change my Beeminder goals?
No. The selected Beeminder action retrieves active goals. It does not edit goals or create datapoints.
Can it know which goal matters most?
It can organize the returned goal list around the instruction you provide, but any priority or progress context not returned by Beeminder must be included in your request.
