Notis

Render document packs from a recurring batch

Turn the documents you provide for a scheduled run into rendered outputs from a supplied template.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Update Template Metadata

Updates an existing template’s metadata, attributes or deployment lifecycle.

Why this helps

Recurring document packs require repeated extraction and rendering steps that can fall behind when handled manually.

  • Combine recurring extraction with a direct render action.
  • Use a supplied template without a separate upload step.
  • Create consistent outputs from each scheduled batch.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Carbone once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to process the documents supplied for each run with Affinda and render the requested output using a supplied base64 template and returned data.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real batch and template.

Questions about this workflow

Does this store the template in Carbone?

No. Direct rendering uses the supplied template and data in one API call.

Where do the scheduled documents come from?

Provide the documents for each run. A schedule starts the automation but does not locate files by itself.
