Notis

Keep survey review notes with your Dovetail research

Capture a short review of survey feedback in Dovetail as soon as the generated review is ready.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Note

Creates a note in a project; its content is stored but not returned.

Why this helps

Survey reviews often sit in separate documents, making it harder to compare feedback with other research.

  • Keep feedback reviews in the research workspace.
  • Summarize recurring themes and open questions in one note.
  • Avoid reformatting generated survey analysis by hand.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for survey review capture.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a note with supported themes, representative source context, and unresolved questions from each completed survey review.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real survey review and check that the note preserves the source meaning.

Questions about this workflow

Can this analyze raw survey responses?

It can use only the response content or analysis supplied with the webhook. Include the relevant content and ask Notis to distinguish evidence from interpretation.

Will every response become a separate note?

The instruction can ask for one note per completed review. Specify a different grouping only if the webhook provides enough information to support it.

What if a review contains sensitive feedback?

Use your organization's handling rules in the instruction and send only the content that should be stored in Dovetail.
