Find existing records for verified contacts
Check an incoming email with Abstract, then search Elasticsearch for contact records that may already match.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Query Index
Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.
Why this helps
New contact details can be scattered across records, leaving founders to repeat searches and verify the same person twice.
- Validate an email before looking for a matching record.
- Reduce duplicate manual searches across stored documents.
- Receive a run report with the lookup results.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to validate the incoming email with Abstract and search a specified Elasticsearch index for records matching the supplied identity details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the query uses fields present in the index.
