Notis

Keep report template details accurate after a change

Send a confirmed template and its approved metadata change to Notis, then update Carbone in the same workflow.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Template Metadata

Updates an existing template’s metadata, attributes or deployment lifecycle.

Why this helps

Template details fall out of date when a naming or ownership decision is not reflected in the document library.

  • Apply an approved metadata change to an identified template.
  • Keep names and organizational details current.
  • Tie the update request to an incoming webhook.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Carbone once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3Describe the approved change and ensure the webhook includes the template ID and new values.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real template and confirm its metadata after the update.

Questions about this workflow
