Bring earlier channel decisions into affiliate updates
Give each incoming Adtraction update useful context from the Ably conversation where your team discussed it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Channel History
Retrieves the message history for a channel.
Why this helps
Partner decisions can be buried in channel history, forcing you to reconstruct context every time an update arrives.
- Surface prior discussion next to a new partner update.
- Reduce repeated questions and context reconstruction.
- Summarize relevant messages rather than reviewing history manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adtraction and Ably once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe the outcome to Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve relevant Ably channel history for the incoming Adtraction update and summarize only useful context.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request that includes the relevant Ably channel and update details.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis retrieve history without knowing the channel?
The Ably history action needs a channel. Include its name in the request or explain how to identify it.
Does this guarantee every earlier decision is found?
No. The result depends on the history returned and the time range or limits available to the action.
