Notis

Add public research to existing records

Look up missing context in public pages and update only the selected fields on matching Algolia records.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Partial Update Objects

Partially updates multiple records in an index.

Why this helps

Useful public details are often missing from records, and adding them by hand breaks focus.

  • Use public pages as a source for selected record fields
  • Update only specified fields
  • Start enrichment when a request arrives

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtop and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, describe the public lookup, the record IDs, and the fields to partially update.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real record and verify the changed fields.

Questions about this workflow

What identifies the Algolia records?

The action updates records by objectID. Supply those IDs or describe how the workflow obtains them.

Will it replace the whole record?

No. Partial Update Objects changes selected fields on multiple records.

What if the public page lacks a requested detail?

The workflow should leave unavailable information unchanged rather than inventing it.
