Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Diffbot Analyze
Analyzes a web page, identifies its type, and extracts structured data.
Why this helps
A page URL may point to an article, product, discussion, or another page type, leaving you to decide which extractor to try.
- Avoids manually guessing which extraction API fits a page.
- Keeps the Abstract validation context alongside the extraction result.
- Creates a repeatable starting point for web research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Diffbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe how to analyze the URL and use the Abstract validation context in one instruction.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real URL and its validation context.
