Release a claimed request when your process says it is ready

Move a held request forward after the claim step is complete and your readiness condition is met.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Release Signature Request Hold

Release a held signature request and send it to all designated signers.

Why this helps

A claimed request can remain held if nobody notices that it is ready to go out to signers.

  • Release a held request to its designated signers after the required condition is met.
  • Use a webhook signal from your existing ActiveTrail process.
  • Keep the readiness check explicit in the instruction.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and add a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe the readiness condition and how the held request identifier will be provided.
  • 4Choose the notis_webhook trigger and a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify the request is claimed and intended for release.

Questions about this workflow

What does releasing the hold do?

It sends the held signature request to all designated signers.

What must be true before the automation releases it?

Your instruction should require confirmation that the draft was claimed, the request identifier is correct, and it is ready to send.
