Notis

Check the document before the signing handoff

Add a quick status check before the work moves to the next person or signing step.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get Document

Retrieves a document’s current state and details.

Why this helps

A handoff can fail when no one confirms that the intended Docnify document is still in the expected state.

  • Surfaces the current state returned by Docnify before handoff.
  • Provides a repeatable check for a known document.
  • Helps prevent avoidable follow-up caused by stale assumptions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Docnify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis from any channel.
  • 3Tell Notis to fetch the specified document ID and report its returned state and metadata for review before handoff.
  • 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule aligned with your handoff routine and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document and confirm the status report is actionable.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automatically decide the document is ready?

No. It reports the returned state and metadata. Define any readiness criteria in your instruction.

Does it send the document after checking?

No. This workflow fetches the document for review; sending is a separate action.

Where does the document ID come from?

Provide a known ID in the automation instruction or available context.
