Turn a campaign brief into a reviewable draft
Capture the audience and message in a brief, then have Notis prepare an ActiveTrail campaign draft for your approval.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Campaign
Creates an email campaign in draft unless configured to send it.
Why this helps
Campaign setup can stall when a brief has to be re-entered into another tool before anyone can review it.
- Move a brief into ActiveTrail with less re-entry.
- Keep campaign creation in draft status for review.
- Use Abstract to process and clarify incoming brief text.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and ActiveTrail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for campaign brief intake.
- 3Tell Notis to process the incoming brief with Abstract and create an ActiveTrail campaign draft for the specified groups.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real brief through the webhook and review the resulting draft.
Questions about this workflow
Will the campaign be sent automatically?
The Create Campaign action creates a draft unless is_sent is set to true. Keep the instruction explicit that the campaign should remain a draft for review.
What information should the brief include?
Include the campaign purpose, message, and intended ActiveTrail groups. The campaign action is for specific groups.
Can Abstract start this workflow?
Abstract exposes no trigger events here. The workflow starts when an HTTP request reaches the Notis webhook; Abstract can process the brief text within the workflow.
