Get immediate vendor research from one invoice
For a focused one-off check, parse an invoice and run the task configured for that vendor research.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Run Task Sync (GET)
Run an Actor task synchronously and return its output; the request times out after 300 seconds.
Why this helps
A simple vendor check can become a long setup process when the relevant task already exists.
- Use a configured task for a one-off check.
- Get task output in the same workflow run.
- Avoid starting from the Apify console.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Apify once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to parse the invoice with Affinda and run the specified Apify task using its configured settings.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one invoice and confirm the task completes within the synchronous time limit.
