See available Elasticsearch indices during an Affinda handoff
Check the cluster's available indices as document processing moves forward, without breaking focus to manually inspect Elasticsearch.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List Indices
Lists available Elasticsearch indices.
Why this helps
A document handoff can stall when the destination is unclear and index discovery requires a separate context switch.
- Bring available index names into the document handoff.
- Optionally filter the index list by a pattern or health status.
- Make destination review quicker before a follow-up search or analysis.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Describe the outcome: when Affinda sends a document handoff, list Elasticsearch indices and report the relevant destinations.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real handoff and confirm the expected indices appear.
Questions about this workflow
Can I search only indices that match a pattern?
The List Indices action supports optional filtering by pattern, health status, or other criteria, as available to the connected action.
Does this create an index for Affinda data?
No. This workflow only lists available indices. Index creation is not among the allowed Elasticsearch actions.
