Find an Algolia record from a new task
Drop an object reference into a task and let Notis retrieve the matching record.
Trigger
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a Google Tasks list. Uses timestamp filtering (updatedMin) to efficiently detect new tasks.
Action
Find Object
Tool to find the first object matching a query or filter in an index. use when debugging relevance or filter logic after confirming index exists.
Why this helps
Important object references sit in task notes while the actual record remains hidden in a separate search console.
- Retrieves the right object quickly
- Keeps task context intact
- Supports lightweight record checks
