Keep exception context with the record

When a document needs attention, place the reason beside its Airtable record for easier follow-up.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Comment

Creates a new comment on a specific record within an airtable base and table.

Why this helps

An exception can be flagged in document processing, while the explanation gets lost in a separate inbox or chat.

  • Keep the reason for review alongside the relevant record.
  • Make exceptions easier to hand off.
  • Reduce context switching during follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Algodocs and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for document exceptions.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to add a comment to the related Airtable record when received data flags an exception.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Send one real exception payload and confirm the comment appears on the intended record.

Questions about this workflow

What does the webhook need for a comment?

It should provide the exception details and enough information to identify the Airtable base, table, and record.

Can this handle exceptions without an existing Airtable record?

This workflow adds a comment to an existing record. Handle missing records separately or include an instruction to report them for follow-up.
