Organize recurring eBay research for ActiveMerge templates

Give recurring product research a predictable home, so the results you need for document workflows are easier to gather and review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create a new collection

Creates a collection for batching and scheduling requests.

Why this helps

Recurring document work depends on product research, but creating a fresh collection each time adds another task to remember.

  • Create a research collection on a recurring schedule.
  • Keep recurring research organized by the purpose you provide.
  • Reduce the setup work before preparing template-based documents.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what outcome you want from any channel.
  • 3Describe the collection purpose and settings Notis should use for the recurring research.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real scheduled collection creation.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating a collection also run its requests?

No. This workflow creates a collection. Requests must be added and the collection started using the appropriate Countdown API actions.

Can Notis invent the research inputs?

No. Provide the collection purpose and any desired settings or research criteria in your instruction. Notis cannot supply an unstated research baseline.
