Notis

Collect the assets a campaign still needs

When a campaign handoff identifies missing materials, create a Dropbox upload link for contributors.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create file request

Create a file request so others can upload files to a folder.

Why this helps

Campaign work stalls while someone tracks down files through scattered messages.

  • Give contributors one upload destination.
  • Reduce repeated requests for files.
  • Keep incoming campaign materials together.

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 create a Dropbox file request when the webhook includes a campaign asset collection request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real campaign handoff and confirm the upload link is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does the webhook itself identify missing files?

The request sent to the webhook should describe the campaign and the files needed.

Can contributors upload without access to the folder?

Dropbox file requests provide a link for uploads to the specified folder; access behavior depends on Dropbox's file request settings.
