Make FAQ answers searchable as individual records

Convert a public FAQ page into searchable question and answer records in Algolia.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add Record to Index

Adds a record to an index, replacing any record with the same generated ID.

Why this helps

Useful answers are difficult to retrieve when an entire FAQ exists only as one long page.

  • Separates questions and answers into records
  • Makes individual responses easier to retrieve
  • Reduces manual FAQ data entry

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgentQL and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how to extract FAQ questions and answers from the page.
  • 3Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 4Send one real FAQ page and verify the extracted records in Algolia.

Questions about this workflow

Can it retain the original page URL?

Yes, if the URL is available to the workflow and you instruct it to include that source detail in each record.

How should updated FAQ entries be handled?

For a refresh workflow, use known objectIDs and Add or Replace Record. This workflow adds extracted entries, so define how to avoid duplicates on repeated submissions.
