Bring a person record into your next review
When a conversation or decision is coming up, use a webhook to bring the relevant Affinity person record into view.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get a single person
Use get `/v2/persons/fields` with `fieldids` or `fieldtypes` for detailed data; basic info by default. request multiple fields at once. "export all people" permission needed.
Why this helps
Preparing for a conversation takes longer when contact details live in a separate system and are hard to gather quickly.
- Get person details when a review is initiated.
- Reduce manual searching before a conversation.
- Summarize only the data returned by Affinity.

- 1Connect Affinity once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis from any channel.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the specified Affinity person and summarize the details relevant to your review.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real person identifier and confirm the available data.
