Check format support before converting

Have Notis verify a requested conversion is supported before you start processing an ActiveMerge file.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Check Conversion Support

Checks whether a specific file format conversion is supported.

Why this helps

Unsupported format requests can interrupt a document workflow and leave you figuring out what went wrong.

  • Verify a specific input and output format combination.
  • Avoid attempting a conversion that ConvertAPI does not support.
  • Get a compatibility result before deciding what to do with the file.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and ConvertAPI once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe that Notis should check support for the requested input and output formats before conversion.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real format pair you expect to use.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow perform the conversion?

No. It checks whether a specific conversion is supported. Use a separate conversion workflow to process a supported file.

Where do the formats come from?

The webhook request or your instruction must identify the input and output formats to check.
