Clear an outdated chatbot file after review

If a processed document has been superseded and its Botsonic file is confirmed, send the file ID through a webhook. Notis can carry out the focused removal.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Delete Uploaded File

Permanently removes an uploaded file from a bot’s training data.

Why this helps

Superseded files may remain in a chatbot knowledge repository when the cleanup requires a separate lookup and manual deletion.

  • Remove a specific uploaded file after review.
  • Use its confirmed file ID to target the right item.
  • Close the loop between document changes and chatbot repository maintenance.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Botsonic once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe in one instruction that only the confirmed Botsonic file ID in the request should be deleted.
  • 4Select the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file approved for removal and verify the outcome.

Questions about this workflow

What identifier does this require?

It requires the unique ID of the uploaded file to remove. Confirm the file ID before starting the webhook.

Will it delete other bot data too?

The action deletes a specific uploaded file by its ID. It is scoped to the file identified in the request.

Can a document update start this on its own?

Affinda trigger events are unavailable. Start the workflow with a Notis webhook after review confirms the file should be removed.
