Adapt a saved research task to this request
Keep the reusable task and tailor its input to the deal or contact you are researching now.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Run Task Sync with Input Override & Get Dataset Items
Runs a task with input overrides and retrieves its dataset items; it must finish within 300 seconds.
Why this helps
Recreating a task for each new research target wastes time and creates unnecessary setup work.
- Reuse a configured task with request-specific input.
- Retrieve dataset items from the customized run.
- Avoid duplicating task configuration for each research target.
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 task, specify the input override from the Affinity request, 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 request and check that the override and results fit the intended research.
Questions about this workflow
Will the override permanently change the saved task?
This action runs the task with input overrides and retrieves the results. It does not describe a task settings update.
Can the input be inferred from a deal name alone?
Only when the needed research input is present in the request. State the relevant target or criteria in the instruction.
