Add an option to a Cloudcart variant from a request

Route a clear option request to the existing variant and save the supplied choice.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Variant Option

Tool to create a new variant option for a specific product variant. use when you need to add an option (e.g., 'large') with an optional price adjustment to an existing variant.

Why this helps

Small variant option changes can get buried in chat and leave product choices incomplete.

  • Adds a requested option to a specified existing variant
  • Keeps option creation tied to an incoming request
  • Reports the result for a quick check

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Cloudcart once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for variant options.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to identify the variant and what option details are required.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real option request for an existing variant.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a variant first?

No. The request must identify an existing product variant.

Can the option include a price adjustment?

Yes, if the request supplies the adjustment and the action supports it.
