Confirm a web form submission by email
Turn a submitted request into a timely confirmation that reflects the information provided.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send Email
Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.
Why this helps
When form submissions arrive through separate tools, people can be left unsure whether their request was received.
- Acknowledge requests promptly.
- Use the submission details supplied in the webhook.
- Reduce manual receipt follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Anchor browser and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to use the submitted details in the webhook, inspect any supplied page context with Anchor browser when needed, and send a concise receipt to the supplied address.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real submission and confirm the recipient and message before relying on it.
Questions about this workflow
Where does the recipient address come from?
It must be included in the incoming request or otherwise supplied to the automation.
Will it promise a response time?
Only include a response time if you provide one in the instruction or submission context.
