Get a quick visual preview of ActiveMerge PDFs

Create first-page thumbnails on a recurring schedule for the ActiveMerge PDFs you want to review, without opening each document.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Why this helps

Checking a growing set of documents one by one makes routine review slower and easier to put off.

  • Generate a visual preview of each document's first page
  • Make recurring document review quicker
  • Keep the document list explicit in the automation instruction

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 create first-page thumbnails for the ActiveMerge PDF response IDs you provide.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real PDF response ID and review the generated thumbnail.
