Prepare an embedded signing request from an event

When your application signals that a document is ready, create an embedded signing request from the supplied details.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Embedded Signature Request

Create a signature request for signing within an embedded frame.

Why this helps

A document is ready for in-app signing, but someone still has to recreate the request in the signing service.

  • Start embedded request creation from an external event handler.
  • Reuse document and signer details supplied with the request.
  • Avoid switching away from the application workflow to initiate signing.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to create an embedded request from the webhook details.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example sent by an external service to the Notis webhook.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow provide the signing URL?

The create embedded signature request action creates the request. The available action list also includes Get Embedded Sign URL, but this workflow uses only the create action.

How does an Ably event start the workflow?

Ably has no listed Notis trigger event. An external service must send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook when it handles the relevant event.
