Why this helps
Program intake details can be captured once and then manually transcribed into a second system, creating delay and rework.
- Reduce manual re-entry of program intake details.
- Start the workflow when an HTTP request reaches the Notis webhook.
- Make run outcomes visible through a chosen report channel.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe how to prepare and submit the incoming intake as an OpenRosa XForm.
- 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger and arrange for the intake process to send its record to that webhook.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real intake and confirm the resulting form in CommCare.
Questions about this workflow
What metadata must the XForm include?
The submission requires complete XML with metadata including deviceID, timeStart, timeEnd, username, userID, and instanceID.
Can the form create or update a case?
That depends on the CommCare form configuration. The action submits a form; the form's configured behavior determines whether case data changes.
