Why this helps
Link activity can prompt follow-up, but finding the right customer thread across a busy inbox takes time.
- Bring relevant email context into the follow-up process.
- Reduce manual inbox searches after a link draws attention.
- Keep a clear next step attached to the link activity.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitly and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: search Gmail for conversations related to the supplied Bitly link context and summarize useful follow-up.
- 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Bitly link example and review the result.
Questions about this workflow
Does Bitly automatically start this workflow?
Bitly has no available trigger events here, so a Notis webhook starts the automation when an HTTP request is sent.
Can it identify every email mentioning a link?
It can search Gmail using the link context supplied to the webhook, but matching depends on the information in messages and the search prompt.
