Handle DocsAutomator change requests in one workflow

Turn a clear settings request into an update to the existing automation, then review the run report.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Automation

Updates settings for an existing automation.

Why this helps

Small automation changes can sit in a queue when they require a manual context switch.

  • Start an update from an incoming request.
  • Update only the settings described in the request.
  • Keep a report of the workflow run.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and DocsAutomator once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and instruct Notis to update only the specified fields on the identified DocsAutomator automation.
  • 3Choose the Notis webhook trigger and arrange for the request source to send an HTTP request.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real change request and verify the intended settings.

Questions about this workflow

Can this update every setting at once?

The action updates only fields included in the request. Specify the intended fields and values in the instruction.
