Set up a tracker for a new document workflow

Create a dedicated Airtable table when a new document workflow starts, with a structure you specify in the instruction.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create table

Creates a new table within a specified existing airtable base, allowing definition of its name, description, and field structure.

Why this helps

New document processes often start before a clear place to track requests and follow-up exists.

  • Create a dedicated home for workflow records.
  • Start tracking new document processes with a consistent structure.
  • Reduce setup friction when a new process begins.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe in one instruction the existing base and table name, description, and field structure to create.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real workflow setup request.
