Send scripture lookup requests to Notis

A custom backend can send a request to Notis and start an Api bible search automatically.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Search Verses

Tool to search for verses containing a specified query within a version.

Why this helps

A scripture question collected by another tool can get stuck waiting for someone to copy it into a separate search.

  • Start a search from an existing custom tool.
  • Reduce copy-and-paste follow-up between systems.
  • Keep search results in a designated run-report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Api bible to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create a webhook-triggered automation in the portal, or ask Notis to configure it conversationally.
  • 3Use one prompt: When my custom backend sends a Bible reference or scripture topic, search Api bible for relevant verses and share the results in my run-report channel.
  • 4Select an incoming webhook as the trigger and choose the run-report channel.
  • 5Send one real sample request from the backend to confirm the search runs.

Questions about this workflow
