Stop DeskTime tracking when research is complete
Close the loop on a browsing task with one request that stops its DeskTime timer and reports what happened.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Stop Project Task
Stop tracking time on a project or task.
Why this helps
A timer left running after web research can make tracked time less useful and harder to review.
- Stop tracking when a research task is explicitly complete.
- Reduce forgotten timers after switching to other work.
- Get a run report confirming the requested action.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AgentQL and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and set its name and prompt.
- 3Describe that Notis should stop the named DeskTime project task when the webhook request marks the research session complete.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real completion request for a known project task.
Questions about this workflow
Does AgentQL completion automatically trigger this?
No. AgentQL has no listed trigger events here. A Notis webhook request must start the automation and indicate that the session is complete.
Can Notis stop the wrong task if the request is vague?
Instruct Notis to stop only when the target project or task can be identified, and to report missing details otherwise.
