Prepare a Backendless folder for Ahrefs research

Create a clear destination for a research task so its supporting materials have an agreed place to go.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Directory

Create a directory in file storage.

Why this helps

Research work is harder to revisit when there is no clear destination for its supporting files.

  • Prepare an explicit directory for a research task.
  • Keep the destination tied to the requested subject.
  • Avoid creating a folder unless a path has been supplied.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Backendless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to perform the requested Ahrefs research and create the exact Backendless directory path supplied in the request.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real request and verify the directory appears at the specified path.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating a directory save the Ahrefs report there?

No. The listed action creates a directory. Saving or moving a report would require a separate supported file operation and an available report file.

What if the requested path already exists?

The run report should state the result returned by Backendless. Use a suitable new path when a separate folder is required.
