See how often your Affinity report templates are used

Let Notis check the usage statistics for the CraftMyPDF templates behind your recurring Affinity documents.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Query Template Usage Statistics

Retrieve PDF generation counts and credit usage for selected templates over a date range.

Why this helps

It is difficult to tell which report templates are consuming usage when document generation happens across busy weeks.

  • Review generation counts over a chosen date range.
  • See credit consumption for specified templates.
  • Make usage data available in a recurring run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and CraftMyPDF once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve usage statistics for the selected report templates and summarize counts and credits.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example using a valid template and date range.

Questions about this workflow

Does the usage action identify templates automatically?

No. The request needs the relevant template identifiers and date range.

Does this generate a PDF?

No. This action retrieves usage statistics; use a PDF creation action when you need a document.
