Notis

See which Elasticsearch indices may hold a contact record

Not sure where a customer record lives? Send the contact details and Notis checks them with Addressfinder, then lists available Elasticsearch indices for review.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

List Indices

Lists available Elasticsearch indices.

Why this helps

Searching the wrong index wastes time and can make a valid contact look missing.

  • Check submitted contact details before investigating.
  • See available index names in the same report.
  • Decide which index to query in a separate search step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addressfinder and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create it.
  • 3Describe the outcome: validate the submitted email or phone with Addressfinder, list available Elasticsearch indices, and summarize index names that appear relevant without assuming their contents.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real contact request and confirm the report helps you select an index.

Questions about this workflow

Does listing indices reveal which one contains a specific contact?

It returns available index information, not document contents. Use the report to choose an index for a separate query.

Can it filter index names?

The Elasticsearch list-indices action supports optional filtering. Ask Notis to use a pattern or health filter when you know the appropriate criteria.
