Keep supporting deal files easy to find
Have Notis revisit a Backendless directory on a schedule and identify files relevant to the Affinity deal context you provide.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Directory Listing
List files and directories in storage.
Why this helps
Teams can lose time rechecking file storage for supporting materials before recurring deal reviews.
- Make recurring file checks part of deal preparation.
- Use supplied context to focus attention on relevant files.
- Avoid manually scanning the same directory each time.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for deal file review.
- 3Tell Notis which Backendless directory to list and what supplied Affinity deal details should guide its file relevance summary.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real deal and confirm the results point to useful files.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow know which Affinity deals changed?
No. Affinity has no trigger events here. Provide the deal context to the scheduled run.
Can it retrieve file contents?
The chosen action returns a directory listing. The workflow should report relevant listed items and should not claim to inspect file contents unless those contents are supplied separately.
