Remove a generated PDF when it is no longer needed

When a generated document should be removed, pass its response ID into a focused cleanup workflow.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Delete PDF

Permanently deletes a generated PDF from storage.

Why this helps

Generated files that are no longer needed can linger when cleanup depends on someone remembering a separate step.

  • Remove a previously generated PDF by response ID.
  • Tie cleanup to a defined webhook request.
  • Reduce manual follow-up for generated document removal.

  • 1Connect Acculynx and Api2pdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe which generated PDF to delete and provide its response ID in one instruction.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real generated PDF that is intended for deletion.
