Prepare Blackbaud gift batches from ActiveMerge donation forms

Move donation details from completed forms into an open gift batch, so your team can review them in Blackbaud without retyping each gift.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add Gifts To Batch

Add gifts to an existing open batch for later processing.

Why this helps

Donation details arrive in generated documents, then someone has to copy them into a Blackbaud batch before processing.

  • Reduce manual re-entry of donation details.
  • Collect multiple gifts in an existing open batch for later processing.
  • Keep a run report for checking what Notis handled.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Blackbaud in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to read each submitted donation form and add its supported gift details to the specified existing open Blackbaud batch.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real form example to the webhook and review the resulting batch and run report.
