Notis

Start eBay product research from a submitted brief

Send Notis a product research brief and have a Countdown API collection ready for the next step.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create a new collection

Creates a collection for batching and scheduling requests.

Why this helps

Turning a product idea into a research workspace takes extra setup and can leave promising ideas waiting.

  • Create a dedicated collection when a brief arrives.
  • Keep research kickoff tied to the original request.
  • Reduce the manual setup between an idea and research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Countdown API collection for each incoming product research brief, using the brief context in the collection details.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real product research brief sent to the webhook.

Questions about this workflow

Does Abstract start this automation?

No. Abstract has no trigger events in this workflow package. An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts the automation.

Does creating a collection add eBay requests to it?
