Make ActiveTrail Newsletter Links Easier to Share
When a newsletter URL is ready, send it to Notis and get a Cutt.ly link you can paste into a post or message.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Shorten URL
Creates a short link that redirects to the original URL.
Why this helps
Copying long newsletter URLs into posts and messages makes launch prep slower and harder to scan.
- Turn a supplied newsletter URL into a compact link.
- Keep the original and shortened URLs together in the run report.
- Avoid manually opening a separate link-shortening tool.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveTrail and Cutt.ly once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation with one instruction: shorten the newsletter URL included in each webhook request for sharing.
- 3Select the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real newsletter URL and confirm the report contains the short link.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis find the newsletter URL inside ActiveTrail?
This workflow uses the URL supplied in the webhook request. No ActiveTrail trigger event is available to provide it automatically.
Can I choose a custom alias?
Cutt.ly supports custom aliases. Include your alias preference in the instruction and test it with a real URL.
