Create Dovetail contacts from resume documents

Capture contact details from resumes and register them in Dovetail without retyping each document.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Contact

Create a new contact.

Why this helps

Manually copying contact information from each resume creates busywork and makes it easy to miss a detail.

  • Extract contact details from submitted resumes.
  • Register contacts in Dovetail with less manual entry.
  • Use only details that are present in the source document.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for resume contact capture.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to extract contact details with Affinda and create a Dovetail contact only when the document contains enough information.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real resume and check the contact fields in Dovetail.
