Know when the Docparser connection is responding
Schedule a lightweight Docparser connection check and let Notis report whether the API authentication and connection are healthy for your document workflow.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Ping API
Checks authentication and connection health.
Why this helps
A document process can stall when an API connection stops working, and discovering that only after work is waiting adds avoidable follow-up.
- Check Docparser API connectivity on a recurring schedule.
- Get a health status report without opening another dashboard.
- Spot connection issues before relying on Docparser results.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Docparser once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to ping the Docparser API and report the connection health for your Affinda document workflows.
- 4Choose the notis_cron trigger and set the recurring schedule, then choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the report clearly states the connection result.
Questions about this workflow
What does Ping API verify?
It tests Docparser API authentication and connection health.
Does the ping confirm that a particular parser or document is working?
No. The action checks API connectivity. Parser behavior and document results require separate checks.
Can Affinda trigger the check directly?
No Affinda trigger events are available in this setup, so the recurring Notis schedule starts it.
