Route a clear rejection decision to Coupa

When a review in Ably concludes that a pending approval should be rejected, Notis can apply that decision to the identified Coupa approval.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Reject Approval

Tool to reject an approval. Use when you need to programmatically reject a pending approval by ID.

Why this helps

A rejection decision can remain buried in a conversation while the approval continues waiting in Coupa.

  • Act on clear rejection decisions without reopening Coupa manually.
  • Target the approval identified in the webhook request.
  • Keep a report of the automation run in your selected channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Coupa once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to reject the Coupa approval ID supplied with an explicit rejection decision through Ably.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real pending approval ID and rejection decision.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow add a rejection reason?

The listed action rejects an approval. If a reason is important, include it in your process and confirm what the Coupa action supports before relying on it.

What if the request does not include an approval ID?

The instruction should require an approval ID so the action can target a specific pending record.

Can this review and reject approvals automatically?

This workflow acts on an explicit rejection signal. It does not inspect supporting documents or set a review policy.
