Notis

Confirm the user behind a request

Turn a user ID from a content workflow into a clear Backendless record lookup, then review the details before acting.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Find User by ID

Retrieve a user by ID.

Why this helps

A request can stall when its user ID is available but nobody has time to find the corresponding record.

  • Retrieve the record tied to a supplied user ID.
  • Add context to a request review.
  • Keep user lookup attached to the workflow.

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 user lookup.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Backendless user identified by the ID supplied in the webhook and summarize relevant returned details.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and verify the correct user record is returned.

Questions about this workflow

Can this look up a user by email instead of ID?

This action is specifically a lookup by user ID. The webhook needs to provide the ID.

Does the lookup modify the user?

No. It retrieves user information for context.
