Keep Datascope reference items aligned with documents
When an approved document changes an item description or code, update the specified Datascope list element with the verified details.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update List Element
Updates an existing metadata list element.
Why this helps
Reference list items fall out of date when document changes require a separate manual update.
- Reduce delay between approved document changes and list updates.
- Keep reference descriptions and codes current.
- Require clear item identification before updating.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to extract the revised name, description, code, or attributes from the document and update only the explicitly identified Datascope list element when the change is clear.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real approved document and the exact target element.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis choose which element to update based on a similar name?
Provide an exact element identifier or a clear unique matching rule. If identity is ambiguous, have Notis stop and report it.
Can this replace an entire list?
No. This action updates one list element. Bulk replacement is a separate action with soft deletion behavior.
