Notis

Render a one-off document in a single request

For occasional documents, supply the template and data together and let Carbone render them directly.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Render Template Direct

Generates a document from a template and its data in one request.

Why this helps

A one-time report can still take too many steps when it requires setting up a reusable template first.

  • Render a document without separately uploading its template.
  • Use the supplied base64 template and data in one API call.
  • Keep the one-off request and result visible in a Notis run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Carbone once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the one-off document to render.
  • 3Pick the webhook trigger that supplies the template and document data.
  • 4Choose where reports go and test with one real template and data example.

Questions about this workflow

Does this save the template to Carbone?

No. Render Template Direct uses a base64-encoded template and data in a single call.

When is direct rendering useful?

Use it for a document that does not need a separately deployed Carbone template.
