Trigger

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

Action

Why this helps

A temporary upload can be hard to recover later if its file ID and retrieval step are not part of the workflow.

  • Retrieve the original uploaded file by file ID.
  • Make the temporary source available for a later workflow step.
  • Reduce manual searching for a previously uploaded file.

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 download the original uploaded file identified by the supplied file ID.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real uploaded file ID that is still available.
