Notis

Bring web research results into your deal workflow

Start an Actor and review its dataset items as part of the same Affinity research task.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Run Actor Sync & Get Dataset Items

Runs an Actor and retrieves the resulting dataset items.

Why this helps

Switching between deal notes, scraping tools and result pages makes it harder to turn research into a decision.

  • Run an Actor and retrieve its dataset items in one step.
  • Review collected data in the context of a specific deal request.
  • Cut down on manual result retrieval.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Apify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, identify the Actor, describe the deal research input, and ask Notis to summarize the returned dataset items.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real deal research request and review the returned items.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a dataset?

No. It runs the Actor and retrieves the dataset items produced by that run.

What if the research returns many items?

The workflow can summarize the returned items. Specify which details matter in the instruction to keep the review focused.
