Run prepared eBay research when your document work is ready
Once requests are queued, send a webhook to start their collection processing and move product research forward alongside document work.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Start Collection
Starts processing the queued requests in a collection.
Why this helps
Queued research sits idle because starting the collection is a separate step that is easy to miss during document preparation.
- Start a prepared collection when a webhook signals that research should run.
- Keep the collection start tied to a clear document-work milestone.
- Send run reports to a channel you already check.
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 which prepared collection Notis should start when the webhook arrives.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real idle collection that has queued requests.
Questions about this workflow
Can this create the requests as well?
No. This workflow starts a collection that already has queued requests. Use a separate workflow to create collection requests.
What collection should the webhook identify?
Supply the collection ID or another unambiguous identifier in the webhook context. The trigger cannot infer which collection you mean.
