Make stored-file handoffs clear
Turn a storage completion into a simple handoff with the file details and next owner included when provided.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Publish Message to Channel
Publishes a message to a channel.
Why this helps
A stored file can be technically ready while the next person still does not know it is theirs to handle.
- Pair file availability with a clear next action.
- Include the next owner when the event identifies one.
- Reduce follow-up messages asking who should take over.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect the ActiveMerge webhook sender and Ably in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation and describe the handoff message to publish.
- 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger configured for storage completion requests.
- 4Choose where Notis run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real stored-file event and check the handoff details.
Questions about this workflow
Can it assign the file to someone in ActiveMerge?
No. It sends a message to Ably. Assignment changes are not included in the available actions.
What if no next owner is supplied?
Ask Notis to state that ownership was not provided, rather than guess who should take the file.
