Action

Run Actor Asynchronously

Tool to run a specific actor asynchronously. use when you need to trigger an actor run without waiting for completion and retrieve its run details immediately.

Why this helps

Opportunity details change, but market and account research can remain stuck in an old snapshot.

  • Start research in response to opportunity changes.
  • Make it easier to refresh context before the next deal conversation.
  • Use an asynchronous run for research that may take time.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and Apify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis which Apify Actor to run when an opportunity is created or updated, and explain the research objective.
  • 4Pick the New or Updated Opportunity trigger and choose a report destination.
  • 5Test using one real opportunity change and check the Apify run details in the report.
