Prepare the language track before captions arrive
Create the track your caption workflow needs, then continue with subtitle upload when the content is ready.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Subtitle Language
Creates a subtitle language track for a video.
Why this helps
Caption handoffs stall when the required language track has not yet been created for the video.
- Create the requested language track for a specified Amara video.
- Use the language code supplied with the ActiveMerge package.
- Remove a manual setup step before caption upload.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Amara once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation for subtitle language setup.
- 3Tell Notis to create the requested subtitle language for the Amara video identified in the webhook request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and configure ActiveMerge to send the video id and ISO 639-1 language code.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with a real video and language code.
Questions about this workflow
What language value should ActiveMerge provide?
Provide an ISO 639-1 language code for the requested subtitle track.
Does this also upload subtitles?
No. It creates the language track. A separate subtitle creation step can use that track afterward.
