Get Article Data

Why this helps
A reference buried in a document can take several searches to verify and summarize.
- Retrieve article metadata from a supplied URL.
- Make source review easier with consistent article details.
- Keep article research connected to the document that prompted it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Diffbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use an article URL or reference in the incoming Affinda data to retrieve and summarize article details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real document containing an article reference.
