Move completed consent forms into CommCare
When an ActiveMerge consent workflow finishes, have Notis prepare and submit its form data to the right CommCare application.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Submit Form to Application
Submits an XForm to a specified CommCare application.
Why this helps
Finalized consent paperwork can sit outside CommCare while someone manually re-enters its details.
- Reduce duplicate entry after consent documents are finalized.
- Keep a clear run report for each attempted submission.
- Use a real completed document example to check the result.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe how finalized consent document data should become a form submission in the intended CommCare application.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real consent document and check the CommCare result.
Questions about this workflow
Does ActiveMerge provide a built-in trigger for this workflow?
No. ActiveMerge exposes no trigger events here, so Notis starts from a webhook request sent when your document workflow is complete.
What does CommCare need to accept a form?
The submission must be a properly formatted XForm with required metadata such as deviceID, timeStart, timeEnd, username, userID, and instanceID.
Will Notis infer missing consent fields?
Notis can interpret data supplied in the webhook and document context. Provide any required values that are not present in that input.
