Why this helps

Downloading an unknown stored file just to learn what it is adds a needless step to document handling.

  • Check stored file details without downloading the content.
  • Help identify the right result in a multi-file workflow.
  • Give the team a concise metadata report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and ConvertAPI once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to inspect the supplied ConvertAPI file reference and report available metadata.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real stored file reference.
