Send the file identifier and its current no-work status to request cancellation and any applicable refund.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Cancel and Refund Audio File

Cancels an audio file order and issues a refund if eligible.

Why this helps

An order submitted in error can keep consuming attention until someone follows up to cancel it.

  • Handle eligible cancellations through one request.
  • Keep the supplied file status attached to the decision.
  • Get a report on the cancellation and refund attempt.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and CastingWords once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for eligible order cancellations.
  • 3Tell Notis to cancel and request a refund only when the request identifies a file with no transcription work done.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real eligible file identifier and verify its status first.
