Keep Clientary tasks current from Ably progress updates

Let a clear progress handoff update the task that already tracks the work.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Task

Tool to update an existing task in Clientary with partial or complete field modifications. Use when you need to modify task details such as title, description, completion status, assignee, or due date. All fields except ID are optional.

Why this helps

Task status and due dates drift when progress is shared in chat but no one circles back to the task record.

  • Update an identified task from an explicit progress event.
  • Apply only the changes included in the handoff.
  • Keep task status and ownership details aligned with reported progress.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction to update the Clientary task identified in each webhook using only explicit changes in the request.
  • 4Select the webhook trigger and report destination.
  • 5Test with one real progress event and confirm the task update.

Questions about this workflow

What does the progress event need to include?

It needs the task ID and the specific task changes, such as completion status or due date.

Can Notis decide whether a task is complete?

Use explicit completion information from the request. Notis should not infer completion from vague progress language.
