Notis

Send only the pages someone needs from an ActiveMerge PDF

Skip the manual split when a reviewer or recipient needs only a few pages from a larger generated document.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Extract PDF Pages

Extracts selected pages from a PDF into a new document.

Why this helps

Sharing a full document when only a handful of pages matter creates extra searching and makes handoffs harder to follow.

  • Create a focused PDF from selected pages
  • Reduce unnecessary document handoffs
  • Use the webhook request to specify the file and pages

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Api2pdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to extract the page indices specified in each incoming request from its identified PDF.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real PDF response ID and page selection.

Questions about this workflow

How do I specify which pages to extract?

Include the page indices in the webhook request and describe the selection in your instruction. Test the numbering with a real document.

Does this change the original PDF?

The action extracts specified pages into a document. Check the result from a real run before using it in a handoff.
