Bring linked discussions into document review

When a document points to a forum, comment section, or review page, let Diffbot retrieve the thread for a focused review.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Discussion Thread

Extracts posts and their relationships from a web discussion thread.

Why this helps

Following references from documents into long discussion pages interrupts focused review.

  • Retrieve discussion content from supplied URLs.
  • Keep linked public feedback near its source document.
  • Summarize a thread without manually scanning the entire page.

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 discussion URLs in the incoming Affinda data to retrieve the thread and summarize its main points.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document containing a discussion URL.
