Keep campaign file details structured
Apply campaign metadata to a Dropbox file when the handoff supplies the required property template and values.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add file properties
Adds structured custom properties to a file.
Why this helps
Campaign details are hard to filter when they exist only in file names or notes.
- Keep supplied campaign details attached to the file.
- Make files easier to organize with structured properties.
- Avoid retyping metadata after a handoff.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ActiveTrail and Dropbox once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to add the supplied property values from the webhook to the identified Dropbox file using an existing filled property template.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file and valid property values.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create the property template?
No. This action adds properties using a filled template. A template must already exist.
What if a property value is missing?
Have Notis report the missing value instead of guessing.
