Why this helps
Waiting on a document generation step can break focus when campaign reporting is already in motion.
- Queue PDF work without blocking the request
- Support background campaign document generation
- Keep report preparation moving
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveTrail and Craftmypdf once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the background generation workflow.
- 3Tell Notis to queue a PDF using the campaign data and template supplied or retrieved for the request.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real campaign PDF request and verify the callback handling in your surrounding process.
Questions about this workflow
How will I know when the PDF is ready?
This action queues generation via webhook. Configure the surrounding process to receive the result callback and handle it as needed.
Does the request return the finished document immediately?
No. The generation is asynchronous, so it queues the work and provides the result through its webhook process.
