Why this helps
Urgent weather alerts can get buried in forecast feeds while field teams wait for a clear response record.
- Create a consistent response record from an alert payload.
- Reduce manual copying between weather monitoring and field workflows.
- Give coordinators a clear form submission to review.

- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real alert through the webhook and review the CommCare submission.
Questions about this workflow
How does the AccuWeather alert start this workflow?
AccuWeather has no listed Notis trigger event, so an external service must send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook when it receives an alert.
Does this workflow decide what field teams should do?
It can organize alert details into a response form. Provide your program's response guidance in the prompt; Notis should not invent protocols.
