Keep file handoff details beside the related content

When ActiveMerge sends a file handoff update, add the supplied context as a comment on its related Contentful entry.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Entry Comment

Creates an active comment on an entry.

Why this helps

File locations and handoff details are easy to miss when they are separated from the related CMS item.

  • Keep handoff notes next to the related entry.
  • Make supplied file context easy to find.
  • Reduce status messages across separate tools.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe what file handoff details should be added as a comment.
  • 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 4Send one real handoff update with its entry reference and inspect the comment.

Questions about this workflow

Does this move the file into Contentful?

No. It adds a comment. Use an asset creation action when you need to create an asset.

Does it work without an entry reference?

The action comments on an entry, so the request needs to identify the relevant existing entry.
