Tailor extraction rules for a site you research often
For a site that standard extractors do not handle well, ask Notis to create or update a Diffbot Custom API using the rules and examples you provide.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create or Update Custom API
Creates or updates a Custom API with tailored website extraction rules.
Why this helps
Repeatedly collecting the same details from a hard-to-parse site turns research into a manual copy-and-check routine.
- Define extraction logic for a specific site
- Reduce repeated manual parsing
- Reuse site-specific extraction rules
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agiled and Diffbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis which site needs a Custom API and provide the URL patterns, selectors, and extraction rules to apply.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real page and review the resulting API rules.
