Why this helps
A completed or updated document can leave the next app-side task waiting for someone to start it manually.
- Start an exposed Bubble API workflow from a request.
- Pass structured parameters in a POST body.
- Reduce the gap between a document signal and app-side follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Bubble once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to POST the supplied parameters to the named Bubble backend workflow.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and have the sender post the document signal and parameters to its URL.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real request and confirm the Bubble workflow is exposed as a public API workflow.
