Add metadata fields as document needs change
When your document process needs a new asset attribute, use Affinda workflow context to create its Cloudinary field definition.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Metadata Field
Creates a metadata field definition.
Why this helps
Teams can struggle to keep asset metadata aligned with changing document workflows.
- Create a field definition when a new metadata need is supplied.
- Keep document asset metadata requirements visible.
- Avoid manually recreating the same field setup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Cloudinary once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the metadata field definition to add.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and include the approved field details in the request.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real metadata request.
Questions about this workflow
Will the workflow infer every field from an Affinda document?
No. Include the field requirement and definition details in the request or instruction; the workflow should not assume an undocumented schema.
Does creating a field update existing assets?
The listed action creates a metadata field definition. It does not claim to populate that field on existing resources.
