Look across document indices from one extracted query
Use key details from a submitted document to search several confirmed Algolia indices in one run.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Search Multiple Indices
Searches multiple indices in one operation.
Why this helps
Finding related information across separate indices can require repeating the same search and context in several places.
- Reuse extracted terms across several index searches.
- Reduce repeated query setup across separate indices.
- Collect results for a single human review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Describe the outcome: parse the submitted document and search the confirmed indices using relevant extracted terms.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one document and verify results from each intended index.
Questions about this workflow
Can the indices be chosen dynamically?
Specify the confirmed index names in the workflow or request context; the action searches multiple named indices.
Will it change records?
No. Search Multiple Indices returns search results without modifying records.
