Keep large file conversions moving in the background
Send a file URL and the intended output format in a webhook request, then use asynchronous conversion for longer jobs.
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 make a synchronous workflow time out before the work finishes.
- Use the asynchronous action for large or long-running files.
- Reduce reliance on a request staying open for the full conversion.
- Include the desired output format in the request so the conversion goal is explicit.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agiled and ConvertAPI once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to use the request's file URL and output format with Async Convert for large or long-running files.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file URL and an intended output format.
Questions about this workflow
When should I use Async Convert?
The action description recommends it for large or long-running files to avoid client timeouts.
Does this workflow poll until completion?
The listed action is Async Convert. The supplied action list does not include a job-status check, so this workflow does not promise automatic completion polling.
