Check related Backendless file counts during affiliate reviews

Get a quick count of files in a relevant Backendless directory when an affiliate update arrives.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get File Count

Count files in a directory.

Why this helps

It can take unnecessary context switching to confirm whether supporting files exist for an affiliate update.

  • Check supporting file volume without opening a separate file browser
  • Include the count in an affiliate update review
  • Use Notis to summarize the result for later attention

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Adtraction and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to count files in a specified Backendless directory when an update arrives.
  • 3Specify the directory and describe how the count should inform the report.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real update and confirm the count matches the intended directory.

Questions about this workflow

Can the directory be selected from the incoming update?

The instruction can use a path included in the request if that path is valid and relevant. Otherwise, specify the directory in the instruction.

Does the file count include subdirectories?

Use the action's available include-subdirectories option as appropriate for the desired count.
