Notis

Know how many release assets are there

Get a quick count of the files in a release folder before you begin a detailed asset review.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get File Count

Count files in a directory.

Why this helps

A folder full of assets can be difficult to assess at a glance, especially when you only need a quick completeness signal.

  • Get a fast size check for a release folder.
  • Avoid opening every item for a basic count.
  • Share a simple asset inventory signal.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the release asset count.
  • 3Tell Notis to count files in the Backendless path supplied in the webhook and report the result.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real release folder and confirm whether subdirectories should be included.

Questions about this workflow

Can the count include files in subdirectories?

Specify whether to include subdirectories in your instruction, using the options supported by the Backendless action.

Does the count show which specific assets are missing?

No. A count provides a quantity. To identify missing files, supply an expected list and use a directory listing.
