Notis

Keep merged document search results up to date

When a merge creates a new version, refresh the record people use to find it.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add or Replace Record

Creates a record in an index or replaces the existing record with the same ID.

Why this helps

Old versions can remain prominent in search after a merged document has been revised.

  • Keep one record current across document revisions.
  • Reduce confusion between older and newer merged files.
  • Make the latest supplied file reference easier to find.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Algolia once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how a new merged document version should replace its existing index record.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger and send a request when ActiveMerge completes the merge.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a revised document using the same object ID.

Questions about this workflow

Will this preserve fields missing from the new payload?

Add or Replace Record replaces the record. Include all fields you want to retain in the request.

How does it distinguish versions?

Use the same stable object ID to update one document record, and include version information in the supplied record if needed.
