Notis

Collect missing files for an AccuLynx job

Create one clear upload link when a job is waiting on documents from someone else.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create file request

Create a file request so others can upload files to a folder.

Why this helps

Following up for missing documents takes attention away from moving the job forward.

  • Give contributors one place to upload requested documents.
  • Keep the request tied to a specific job folder.
  • Optionally include a deadline when one is provided.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AccuLynx and Dropbox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Dropbox file request in the project folder for the documents named in the request, using a deadline only when supplied.
  • 4Select the webhook trigger and provide its HTTP request.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real document request.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis invent a deadline?

No. Tell Notis to use a deadline only when the request includes one.

What does the webhook need to include?

Include enough information to identify the project folder and the files being requested.
