Empty an idle collection queue after a deliberate review
When a queue is no longer needed, remove its queued requests with a scheduled automation tied to the collection you specify.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Clear Collection Requests
Clears all pending requests from a collection.
Why this helps
Stale queued research can clutter a collection and make it harder to focus on the work that still matters.
- Remove all requests from a specified idle collection.
- Reduce clutter from queued research that is no longer needed.
- Make queue cleanup a deliberate, reportable workflow.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AimTell and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it Idle Collection Queue Cleanup.
- 3Tell Notis to clear all requests only from the explicitly specified idle collection, and require the collection ID in the instruction or request.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real idle collection that is intended to be cleared and review the report.
Questions about this workflow
Will this clear requests from every collection?
No. The instruction should name one specified collection, and the action clears all requests from that collection.
Can I clear a running collection?
The action is intended for an idle collection's queued requests. Confirm the target collection and status before running.
