Create an eBay research collection for an Affinity company
Give a company research sprint its own place to gather eBay data requests.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a new collection
Creates a collection for batching and scheduling requests.
Why this helps
Research requests can become hard to track when multiple company reviews share one collection.
- Create a dedicated research workspace for a company.
- Keep related eBay requests together.
- Start research from company context without repetitive setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinity and Countdown API once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Countdown collection named for the selected Affinity company's research sprint.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real company and verify the collection name and creation report.
Questions about this workflow
Does creating the collection also add searches?
No. This action creates the collection. Use a separate request-creation workflow to queue eBay searches or product requests.
Can the collection name include the company?
Instruct Notis to use an appropriate company name from Affinity and avoid including sensitive information.
