Action

Get Products

Tool to retrieve products from best buy. use when you need to fetch product listings with optional filters and sorting. example: 'get products for category abcat0101000 sorted by saleprice.dsc.'

Why this helps

Questions about product options can sit unanswered while someone searches multiple catalogs and conversations.

  • Find listings relevant to a clear product or equipment question.
  • Keep the search connected to the message that needs a response.
  • Reduce time spent switching from course discussion to catalog browsing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Canvas and Best Buy once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Best Buy only for messages with a clear product or equipment question and summarize the matches.
  • 4Pick the New Canvas Discussion Message trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real message and review the results.

Questions about this workflow

Will this reply to the discussion automatically?

No. It retrieves product listings for review. Posting a reply is not one of the available actions.

What if the message is vague?

Tell Notis to ask for clarification in its run report instead of guessing at a product search.
