Notis

Check the status of a related browser session

Answer the quick question, 'Where did the browser task get to?' without searching through session history by hand.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Retrieve a browser session

Why this helps

When document work and browser work happen in separate tools, checking session status can become an extra follow-up task.

  • Retrieve status, URLs, timestamps, and other metadata for a specific session.
  • Use an Affinda event to start the status check through a Notis webhook.
  • Summarize session details in the team's selected report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Browserbase tool once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and describe how to check the associated Browserbase session.
  • 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and include the session identifier or needed lookup context.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real session.

Questions about this workflow

What if the Affinda event does not include a session ID?

Provide the session identifier or enough context in the webhook request for the automation to identify the intended session.
