Apply approved subcategory naming updates

Turn an approved cleanup request into a precise category update with the confirmed details attached.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Sub-Category

Tool to update an existing sub-category. Use when you need to rename or move a sub-category after confirming its IDs.

Why this helps

Small category naming fixes can linger when they require another context switch into the question bank.

  • Apply approved naming updates promptly
  • Keep category cleanup connected to its request
  • Reduce forgotten small maintenance tasks

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and ClassMarker once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the approved rename outcome.
  • 3Tell Notis to update only when the request includes approval, the confirmed subcategory ID, parent context, and exact new name.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one approved request and review the resulting category.
