Send backlink prospects from Ahrefs into CommCare follow-up

Ask Notis to review an Ahrefs backlink opportunity and record the useful details in CommCare, so a follow-up does not get lost between tools.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Submit Form to CommCare

Why this helps

Promising outreach prospects can disappear when research lives in Ahrefs and follow-up is tracked separately.

  • Keep prospect review and program follow-up connected
  • Capture a concise research summary in a CommCare form
  • Start the workflow with an HTTP request

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to review the supplied Ahrefs backlink opportunity and submit its relevant details using a suitable CommCare form.
  • 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real prospect and confirm the submitted form contains the intended details.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a CommCare case directly?

This action submits an XForm to CommCare. Whether that form creates or updates a case depends on the form and its configured behavior.

What starts the automation?

An HTTP request to its Notis webhook starts it. Ahrefs has no listed event trigger here.
