Notis

Build a product research queue from a campaign brief

Capture candidate products for campaign review without manually copying every search into Countdown API.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Collection Request

Add a data retrieval request to a collection scheduled for execution; the collection must be idle.

Why this helps

Useful product ideas from campaign planning are easy to lose before marketplace research begins.

  • Add product or search queries to an existing idle collection.
  • Reduce manual copying between campaign planning and research.
  • Keep candidate research organized for a later collection run.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to extract relevant eBay product or search queries from a campaign brief and add them to the specified idle collection.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real brief and an idle collection.
