Start a BotStar bot from an Agility launch request
Send a launch request from your content process and let Notis create the named BotStar bot instance.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Bot
Creates a new bot.
Why this helps
Starting a new chatbot launch requires context switching from the content release process into bot setup.
- Start bot setup from the launch process you already use.
- Use request details to give the new bot a clear name.
- Reduce manual handoffs between content and chatbot setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agility CMS and BotStar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, or use Automations, New Automation in the portal.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to create a BotStar bot using the name included in the launch request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and arrange for your launch process to send it with the bot name.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real launch request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this also copy Agility content into the new bot?
No. This action creates a bot instance. Content import is a separate workflow using BotStar CMS actions.
Where does the bot name come from?
Provide it in the webhook request or specify another reliable source in your instruction.
