Connect a public news check to your company tracker
Start a focused public news check from an HTTP request and locate the matching company record in your spreadsheet.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Look up spreadsheet row
Finds the first row in a google spreadsheet where a cell's entire content exactly matches the query string, searching within a specified a1 notation range or the first sheet by default.
Why this helps
Company updates can arrive between planned reviews, leaving useful context disconnected from your tracker.
- Start a targeted check from an HTTP request.
- Find the matching record in an existing tracker.
- Keep public news research close to company context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bright Data MCP and Google Sheets once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation describing the public company sources and which exact match to look up.
- 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and a report destination.
- 4Test with one company request and confirm the matching row is found.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow add the news to the row?
This action looks up a row by exact cell content. If you want the research written into the sheet, use an instruction and action designed to update or append values instead.
What should identify the row?
Use a stable value already present in the chosen search range, such as the exact company name used in your tracker.
