Run a bulk extraction on your research URL list

Give Notis a maintained URL list and schedule bulk extraction so large research batches can run asynchronously.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Start Bulk Job

Tool to start a bulk extract job. use when processing large numbers of urls asynchronously.

Why this helps

Processing a large URL list one page at a time adds repetitive work and makes research easy to postpone.

  • Start asynchronous extraction for a large number of URLs.
  • Run the batch on a schedule you choose.
  • Keep the URL source explicit so the workflow uses data you actually maintain.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Diffbot in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Automations using New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to start a bulk extraction using the URL list you provide and specify how you want the run reported.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select a report destination.
  • 5Test with one real, small URL list before using the full batch.

Questions about this workflow

Where does the URL list come from?

Provide or maintain the list in the context available to Notis. This workflow does not assume an unlisted storage integration.

Is bulk extraction immediate?

No. Start Bulk Job begins an asynchronous job, so processing and results may take time.

What should I test first?

Use a small set of real URLs and confirm the job starts and the reports tell you what happened.
