Include an Elasticsearch ping in Ahrefs competitor reviews

When competitor research is ready, start a review and see whether Elasticsearch is reachable for any related investigation.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Ping Cluster

Pings the cluster to check its connectivity and health.

Why this helps

Competitor analysis and internal search checks often happen in separate workflows, leaving teams to discover service issues later.

  • Start competitor review from a submitted research handoff.
  • Include current cluster connectivity status in the report.
  • Make follow-up search readiness visible alongside research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to review submitted competitor context using Ahrefs and ping Elasticsearch, reporting the research summary and connectivity result separately.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real competitor research handoff.

Questions about this workflow

Will this workflow search competitor data in Elasticsearch?

No. It pings the cluster only. Searching an index requires the Query Index action and a named index.

What starts the review?

A Notis webhook starts it when an HTTP request is sent. Ahrefs does not provide a listed trigger event for this package.
