Validate email addresses before inviting CommCare web users
Check an address first, then invite the right person with the access details you supplied.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Web User Invitation

Why this helps
Invalid addresses can waste time and leave new collaborators waiting for access.
- Catch invalid email addresses before creating invitations.
- Use the invitation role and permissions supplied in the request or automation instruction.
- Keep access onboarding moving without a separate validation step.
