Kick off slide research without waiting
Send a slide research request to Notis and let an Apify Actor run in the background while you get back to the deck.

Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it; an external caller needs to submit the request.
Does the workflow wait for results?
No. The asynchronous action starts the Actor and returns run details immediately.
Can I use it for long-running collections?
It is suited to starting a run without waiting for completion. Use the Apify console to monitor its progress.
