Notis

Keep image category references current

Refresh the list of active cat image categories on a schedule, ready for the next content or workflow request.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List Image Categories

Lists all active image categories.

Why this helps

Category lists can change, and manually checking them interrupts focused work.

  • Retrieves the active category list periodically
  • Keeps category IDs together with the report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Cats once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve active Cats image categories and include the returned names and IDs in the report.
  • 4Pick a schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real run.

Questions about this workflow

Can this find images in a category too?

This action lists categories. Searching images is a separate Cats action and needs a category ID.

Does it guarantee a category is available for every image search?

It returns active categories, but image availability is not specified by the category listing action.
