Notis

Retrieve a converted file by its ConvertAPI FileId

Bring a previously converted file into the next step of work associated with an Affinity record.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Download File

Downloads a converted or uploaded file.

Why this helps

A completed conversion is harder to use when the output remains on a temporary conversion server and its identifier gets lost.

  • Retrieve a previously converted file by FileId.
  • Make the output available to the next step in a deal workflow.
  • Keep the retrieval request tied to supplied CRM context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and ConvertAPI once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation from any channel in plain language, or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: download the converted file identified by the supplied FileId and report the result with its Affinity context.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real converted file and its FileId.

Questions about this workflow

What does the webhook need to provide?

It needs the ConvertAPI FileId for the converted file and enough Affinity context to associate the result with the right work.

Can I display the download inline?

The action supports an inline download option. Specify that preference in the automation instruction when it suits the workflow.
