Move vetted backlink prospects to the next step
Notis can review backlink opportunities in Ahrefs on a schedule, apply your qualification rules, and start a CircleCI pipeline for the prospects worth processing.

Why this helps
Backlink research often ends with a list of prospects and no clear next step for the ones worth pursuing.
- Apply consistent qualification criteria to backlink opportunities.
- Start an existing CircleCI pipeline for prospects worth processing.
- Keep the prospect review and pipeline run report together.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and CircleCI once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to review Ahrefs backlink opportunities and trigger your CircleCI pipeline for prospects that meet your criteria.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real backlink opportunity.
Questions about this workflow
Does this send outreach to backlink prospects?
No. The CircleCI action starts a pipeline. Any further processing must already be part of that pipeline.
Can I set my own prospect criteria?
Yes. State the criteria in the instruction, including any thresholds or context Ahrefs does not provide.
