Look up finance references for an invoice

Get the invoice details and related finance references together when a document is submitted.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

GraphQL Content API Persisted Query

Executes a persisted GraphQL query.

Why this helps

Checking an invoice against internal guidance can mean repeated searches and lost focus.

  • Use extracted invoice details to guide a content lookup.
  • Reuse a registered GraphQL query by its hash and variables.
  • Keep a record of query results in the Notis run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Contentful graphql once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for invoice reference lookup.
  • 3Tell Notis to extract the invoice details with Affinda and use them to query the registered Contentful finance reference query.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real invoice and check the query results.

Questions about this workflow

Does the persisted query need to be registered first?

Yes. This action runs a persisted query by its SHA256 hash. On the first call, include the full query text; later calls use the hash and variables.

Will this approve or update an invoice?

No. The listed Contentful action runs a query, and no invoice approval action is included.
