  • Get collection metadata in response to an email request.
  • Reduce app switching for routine status checks.
  • Use the retrieved counts to decide what needs attention.

  • 1Connect Agent mail and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Countdown API collection details when an email asks for a status and includes a collection ID.
  • 4Pick the Agent mail New Email Received trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real email that includes a valid collection ID.
