Check available templates for an incoming document request

Give a document request a quick check against the templates DocuGenerate actually has available.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get or list templates

Retrieves or lists existing templates.

Why this helps

A document request can stall when no one knows which template exists or what it is called.

  • Retrieve current template metadata before selecting a document format.
  • Avoid relying on remembered or assumed template names.
  • Surface available choices as part of an incoming request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abuselpdb and DocuGenerate once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe that each request should retrieve the available DocuGenerate templates and report the options, using any supplied Abuselpdb context where relevant.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and confirm the returned template options.

Questions about this workflow

Does this generate a document?

No. It retrieves template listings and metadata. Use a separate generation workflow once you have selected a template and supplied its data.

Why is Abuselpdb included in this workflow?

The source app has no trigger events, so the HTTP request starts the workflow. Any relevant IP or abuse context must be supplied in the request or fetched from Abuselpdb.

Can the workflow use a template ID that was not returned?

It should only use an ID confirmed by DocuGenerate. This workflow retrieves available templates for that purpose.
