Notis

Get the pages you need from a PDF

When someone sends a PDF with a clear page request, have Notis interpret the request with Abstract and ask Api2pdf to extract those pages.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Extract PDF Pages

Extracts selected pages from a PDF into a new document.

Why this helps

Finding and separating a few pages from a long PDF adds manual steps to an otherwise simple request.

  • Use Abstract to process the request text before acting on it.
  • Extract selected pages from a supplied PDF.
  • Reduce manual page selection for routine document requests.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Api2pdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe that Abstract should interpret the requested page numbers and Api2pdf should extract those pages from the supplied PDF.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real PDF and a page request.

Questions about this workflow

What information should the request include?

Provide the PDF input and the page numbers or page-selection instructions in the webhook request.

Does Abstract extract the pages?

No. Abstract can process the request text; Api2pdf performs the PDF page extraction.
