Notis

Turn a topic request into a filtered article search

Pass a phrase and category through your workflow to get a more focused news search.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Search News Articles

Retrieves news articles matching a search and filters.

Why this helps

General searches bring back too much unrelated coverage when you need a specific angle.

  • Use incoming context to guide a search.
  • Narrow results by category and phrase.
  • Keep the search request close to its source.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notis to Currents api once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search the submitted phrase and category, then summarize relevant articles.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test by sending one real phrase and category in a webhook request.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the webhook request include?

Include a search phrase and category that the automation can use. The exact request structure depends on how your caller sends data to the Notis webhook.

Can I use a category without a phrase?

You can ask the automation to search by category, though a phrase may help keep the results relevant to your specific question.
