Turn a webhook into a queued eBay research request
Capture a research need through an HTTP request and let Notis add the specified request to an idle Countdown collection.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Collection Request
Add a data retrieval request to a collection scheduled for execution; the collection must be idle.
Why this helps
Research requests can get lost between deciding what to investigate and manually adding it to a collection.
- Capture a research request at the moment it is needed.
- Queue specified queries in an idle collection.
- Reduce manual handoffs into Countdown API.
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 Webhook eBay Research Queue.
- 3Tell Notis to create the eBay request described in the incoming webhook in the specified idle collection, and ask for missing collection or request details.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real webhook and confirm the request appears in the idle collection.
Questions about this workflow
Can AimTell events trigger this?
AimTell exposes no trigger events here. This automation starts when its Notis webhook receives an HTTP request.
Does the collection need a particular status?
Yes. Countdown API requires the collection to be idle to accept new requests.
