Bring the expense details into the campaign question that needs an answer.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Expense Details

Why this helps

A specific expense question can turn into a long search when the record ID and campaign context are in different places.

  • Retrieve a specific expense by its supplied identifier.
  • Summarize the record with the original question for easier follow-up.
  • Avoid searching through unrelated expense history.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Brex once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the expense ID in the request to retrieve the Brex details and summarize them against the question.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger, choose where run reports go, and test with one real example.
