Schedule approved Contentful content to publish

Capture the approved publish time once and let Notis set up the scheduled action in Contentful.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Scheduled Action

Schedules an automatic future publish or unpublish action for entries or assets.

Why this helps

Approved content can miss its release window when the publish time lives in a message instead of the CMS.

  • Moves an approved publish time into Contentful.
  • Reduces manual scheduling steps.
  • Keeps approval and scheduling tied to a specific entry.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a scheduled publish action for each approved request using its entry and requested time.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real approved entry and a future publish time.
