Create tags for new feedback categories
When your team approves a new category, send it from ActiveMerge and let Notis create the corresponding Canny tag.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Tag
Creates a tag for categorizing posts.
Why this helps
Teams can delay organizing a new feedback theme while waiting for someone to add its tag manually.
- Create tags only for categories your rule approves.
- Keep new categories visible on a specified board.
- Reduce manual board setup work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Canny once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation from the portal or tell Notis in any channel.
- 3Describe the approval rule and provide the board and tag details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one approved category.
Questions about this workflow
Does this apply the new tag to posts too?
No. This action creates a tag. Applying it to a post is a separate action.
What information should the webhook include?
Provide the approved category and the board ID needed to create the tag.
