Notis

Convert large scraped files asynchronously

Move long conversions into an async job so a client timeout does not interrupt the work.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Async Convert

Starts an asynchronous file conversion.

Why this helps

Large files and slow conversions can outlast a synchronous request and leave you unsure whether processing finished.

  • Use an asynchronous conversion for large or long-running files.
  • Avoid relying on a client connection to remain open until conversion finishes.
  • Start conversion work from a webhook request tied to an Agenty workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and ConvertAPI once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to submit the provided file for asynchronous conversion to the specified format.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real large file and a supported output format.

Questions about this workflow

When should I use async conversion?

Use it for large files or conversions that may take a long time and risk a client timeout.

Does this workflow fetch the completed file automatically?

The async conversion starts a job. Retrieving the result requires the relevant job and file details and a separate download action.
