Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Comment
Creates a new comment on a specific record within an airtable base and table.
Why this helps
Research context gets separated from the record and conversation where decisions are made.
- Keep the research attached to the relevant record.
- Include source links for later review.
- Make new findings visible alongside record discussion.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Autom and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and give it a descriptive name.
- 3Tell Notis to research the submitted topic, summarize relevant findings with source links, and add a dated comment to the specified Airtable record.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real record and verify the comment appears in the right place.
