Review possible duplicates in your Algolia index

Get a focused review list of records that look alike, with enough context to decide what should happen next.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Fetch emails

Fetches a list of email messages from a gmail account, supporting filtering, pagination, and optional full content retrieval.

Why this helps

Duplicate records can create confusing search results and take time to find by hand.

  • Find records that appear similar using returned fields.
  • Review possible duplicates before making changes.
  • Keep a record of the findings in Gmail.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Algolia and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Algolia Duplicate Record Review.
  • 3Tell Notis to inspect records from the named index, identify likely duplicates using fields available in the results, and email a review list without deleting anything.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example from an index containing representative records.

Questions about this workflow

Will this delete duplicates?

No. It emails a list for review and does not modify the index.

How does Notis decide records are duplicates?

Describe the fields that matter in your instruction. Notis can only compare fields returned by Algolia.
