Notis

Rename generated documents from a database request

Apply a clear, record-specific name to an existing document when its ID and new name are ready.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Document

Renames an existing generated document.

Why this helps

Generated documents can keep generic names that make them difficult to recognize later.

  • Rename an existing document using its confirmed ID.
  • Use a name supplied or derived from the incoming record.
  • Make generated files easier to recognize in later reviews.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Docugenerate once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the name of the existing document using the confirmed ID and desired name in each request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one document and verify its updated metadata.

Questions about this workflow

Will this rename a document based on a search?

The action updates a document's metadata. Provide its confirmed document ID and the desired new name.

Can this update the document contents?

No. This action updates metadata such as the document name, not the generated file's contents.
