File web research reports in Dovetail docs

Keep finished research reports where your team already reviews research and findings.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Import Doc File

Imports a publicly accessible file as a new document.

Why this helps

Research reports stored as separate files are harder to discover and revisit during project decisions.

  • Create a Dovetail doc from an accessible report file.
  • Keep report documentation with project research.
  • Avoid a separate manual import step.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agenty and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to import the public report file URL from Agenty as a Dovetail doc and use supplied title and project details.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and set where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real public report URL.

Questions about this workflow

Which URLs can be imported?

The file must be publicly accessible for Dovetail to fetch and import it.

Does the doc content appear in the run report?

No. The imported content is stored in Dovetail and is not returned in the action response.

Can the report be summarized first?

This workflow imports a doc. If you want a summary, request it separately when the report content is available to Notis.
