Action
Submit Form ODK Compatible

Why this helps
A team can have the form details ready but still need to switch tools to handle the CommCare submission correctly.
- Use the ODK-compatible submission path for Android client compatibility.
- Keep the unique instanceID requirement visible in the automation prompt.
- Reduce repeated manual submission steps.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agile CRM and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to submit the supplied XForm through the ODK-compatible endpoint and include a unique instanceID; specify what to do if it is missing.
- 4Choose notis_webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one valid form and confirm the result in CommCare.
