Follow up on missing files
When a workflow flags a missing file, reserve time to request it or resolve the gap before the rest of the work stalls.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
Why this helps
A missing file can block progress, but the follow-up often gets lost among other tasks.
- Make the recovery step visible and time-bound.
- Keep the missing file context with the follow-up event.
- Help unblock dependent document work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a follow-up event using the missing file details and timing supplied by the webhook.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real missing-file handoff.
