Understand the fields in your document search index
Check an index mapping when you need to know what fields a generated document can be searched by.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Index Schema
View the structure and field mappings of an index.
Why this helps
You may know which index to search but still lose time guessing whether it contains a title, timestamp, file reference, or other useful field.
- See field names and types before planning a search
- Reduce guesswork when handing off a generated document workflow
- Keep the mapping summary with the automation run report
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and tell Notis which Elasticsearch index mapping to retrieve after a document run.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and configure ActiveMerge to send the request when the run finishes.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real completed run.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis infer the index name from the generated file?
Only if the webhook request or your instruction supplies the index name. The mapping action needs a specific index.
Does this update the mapping?
No. It retrieves the existing schema so you can inspect its fields and types.
