Make campaign review PDFs visibly provisional

Mark review copies clearly so draft campaign documents are not mistaken for approved reports.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add Watermark to PDF

Overlay a customizable text watermark on a PDF.

Why this helps

A PDF sent for review can look final when its status is not obvious on the page.

  • Make draft status visible on the document
  • Reduce confusion between review copies and final files
  • Apply a consistent watermark on request

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 draft marking workflow.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the supplied campaign PDF and add a DRAFT watermark with the style you want.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real review PDF sent through an HTTP request.
