Add a global bot value when a workflow needs one
Keep a new bot-wide value from getting lost in setup notes. Send the requested attribute from ActiveMerge and let Notis add it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Bot Attribute
Creates a bot attribute for shared, multilingual values.
Why this helps
A workflow needs a new global value, but adding it to the bot can fall behind the document work that prompted it.
- Create a bot attribute from an explicit request.
- Use the supplied name, description, and value details.
- Route the run report to a channel where setup can be tracked.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and BotStar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create the requested BotStar bot attribute using the supplied details.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and report channel.
- 5Send one real attribute request from ActiveMerge to test the workflow.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow infer a value that was never provided?
No. Include the attribute details needed by BotStar in the webhook request.
Does this create a user attribute?
No. It creates a global bot attribute. BotStar has a separate action for custom user attributes.
