Turn document workflow approval into a CommCare invitation

When the required onboarding paperwork is complete, pass an approval request to Notis to create the matching CommCare web user invitation.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Web User Invitation

Create an invitation for a new web user.

Why this helps

Approved onboarding paperwork can be complete while the user invitation is still waiting for someone to act on it.

  • Link a completed onboarding workflow to a next-step invitation.
  • Reduce manual follow-up after approval.
  • Keep the invitation run visible for review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create the automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the intended outcome from any channel.
  • 3Describe how an approved document workflow should result in a new CommCare web user invitation, including role and permissions supplied in the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real approved onboarding example and verify the invitation.
