Update image descriptions and metadata by asset ID

When a document workflow supplies a correction, use its asset ID to update the existing Alttext.ai image record.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Image by Asset ID

Update an image’s alt text and metadata; its URL cannot be changed.

Why this helps

Corrected descriptions can be lost in handoffs if someone must find the image and update its record manually.

  • Apply supplied corrections to an existing image record.
  • Use the asset ID to identify the image to update.
  • Keep description updates connected to their originating workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Alttext.ai once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis or tell Notis what outcome you want from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to update the Alttext.ai image using the supplied asset ID and revised alt text or metadata.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and arrange for your backend to send the asset ID and update details.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real asset ID.

Questions about this workflow

Can this action change an image URL?

No. Update Image by Asset ID cannot update the URL of an existing image.

What information should the webhook include?

Include the asset ID and the revised alt text or metadata that should be applied.
