Start new work with a clear project inventory
A quick inventory can help you keep new work distinct from existing project names and history.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
List User Projects
List WakaTime projects for a specified user. Returns project names, IDs, creation dates, and last activity times. Use to discover available projects for any user before querying project-specific stats.
Why this helps
Starting a project can create avoidable confusion when similar names or old experiments already exist.
- See existing WakaTime project names and recent activity at the start of new work.
- Reduce accidental duplication or uncertainty about project context.
- Keep setup decisions simple while attention is on the new idea.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Test app and WakaTime to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation with a prompt asking Notis to list existing WakaTime projects and highlight names that may be relevant to the new project.
- 3Choose an incoming webhook trigger and select the channel for run reports.
- 4Send one real webhook when starting a project and verify the inventory is concise.
Questions about this workflow
