Notis

Keep contact details current in Algolia

When a contact's details change, check the new values and update only the specified fields in Algolia.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Partial Update Objects

Partially updates multiple records in an index.

Why this helps

Replacing a whole record for a small contact update can risk overwriting useful information.

  • Update selected fields without replacing the full record.
  • Check changed contact details before applying them.
  • Keep the update tied to a supplied objectID.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addressfinder and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which supplied contact details to check and update on the identified record.
  • 3Pick the webhook trigger and include the index name, objectID, and changed fields in the request.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real contact update.

Questions about this workflow

What does the request need to identify?
