Notis

Check your research task before it runs

Inspect a task's saved settings before you trust it with the next deal or contact research request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Actor Task

View an Actor task’s configuration, input settings and metadata.

Why this helps

A saved task may have outdated or unclear input settings that are easy to miss when work is moving quickly.

  • Review a task's saved configuration and input.
  • Catch unclear settings before launching research.
  • Reduce surprises from a task whose setup is not understood.

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 Apify task and ask Notis to summarize its configuration and input settings for the intended research.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one task and confirm the report explains its settings clearly.

Questions about this workflow

Does this change the task settings?

No. It retrieves task details for review.

Can Notis tell whether the settings are correct?

Not by itself. Include the intended research outcome so Notis can compare it with the available configuration details.
