Action
Create a new collection

Why this helps
Batch research tasks are requested in chat but never become a structured job.
- Convert chat requests into structured collections
- Start repeatable research batches faster
- Keep collection names tied to the original request
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Timelinesai and Countdown api once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation named WhatsApp eBay research collection.
- 3Tell Notis to interpret each message as a collection request, summarize its purpose, and create the appropriate Countdown api collection.
- 4Pick the Timelinesai New WhatsApp Message Received trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real batch research request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this submit individual eBay requests too?
It creates the collection from the message; request details must be supplied in the message or added afterward.
What if the message is ambiguous?
Notis can report the missing details instead of creating an unclear collection.
