Keep Hex index recovery points visible
Ask Notis to show the available backups regularly, so you can tell whether the index has a recent recovery point.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Index Backups
Tool to list all backups for a specific Pinecone index. Use when you need to view available backups for an index. Supports pagination via limit and paginationToken parameters.
Why this helps
Backups offer little confidence when nobody knows whether a recent one exists or where to check.
- See available recovery points in a routine review.
- Make backup freshness easier to notice.
- Reduce console checking and uncertainty.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Hex and Pinecone to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis in one plain-language instruction to list backups for the Pinecone index containing Hex findings and report their status.
- 4Choose a recurring cron trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Run once and confirm the backup list identifies the expected index.
