Use extracted document details in Appdrag lookups

Put document details to work in an Appdrag production function without retyping them into a separate request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Execute PROD API Function (GET)

Executes a backend function in the production environment.

Why this helps

Re-entering extracted document details for backend lookups interrupts document workflows and invites avoidable mistakes.

  • Reduce manual request preparation.
  • Use extracted document details in a backend lookup.
  • Receive a report of the function run.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Appdrag once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis from any channel.
  • 3Tell Notis which extracted document details to use when calling the appropriate Appdrag production GET function.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real document request and review the function response.

Questions about this workflow

Can the GET function change data?

GET is generally used to retrieve or process information, but the actual behavior depends on your Appdrag function. Confirm its effect before use.

Where do extracted details come from?

They must be included in the HTTP request received by the Notis webhook or otherwise made available to the automation.
