Keep your Affinda document categories easy to find
A regular category list helps you check the right document type before setting up new processing work.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Document Types
Lists document types available to the user.
Why this helps
Without a shared view of existing types, teams may struggle to find the right category or request duplicates.
- Make existing categories easier to scan
- Help prevent duplicate category requests
- Support consistent document classification
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve Affinda document types and summarize the returned catalog.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test against document types you can verify in Affinda.
Questions about this workflow
Will the catalog show types from every organization?
The list is subject to the organization and access context available to the authenticated Affinda request.
Can this add new types when it finds a gap?
This workflow only retrieves the catalog. Creating a type should follow an approved request and use the separate creation action.
