Turn Ably interview transcripts into Dovetail research data
When a transcript is ready, send it through Ably and let Notis save it in the right Dovetail project with its interview context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Data
Creates a research data item in a project.
Why this helps
Copying transcripts into research tools takes time and makes it easy to lose the context around a conversation.
- Capture transcripts without switching apps.
- Keep interview context alongside the transcript.
- Reduce the chance that completed interviews go unrecorded.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe that each finished interview transcript received through Ably should be saved as research data in the intended Dovetail project, including its supplied title and context.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real transcript sent through Ably.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
A webhook request starts it. Your connected system should send the interview transcript and any useful title or context through Ably and into the Notis webhook.
Does this create a Dovetail project?
No. The workflow saves data in the project you specify in the instruction. The project must already exist and be accessible to the connected Dovetail account.
