Give every new project a Dropbox home
Let a project intake create its Dropbox folder, so setup does not become another task to remember.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create folder
Create a folder to organize files.
Why this helps
Project work can begin before anyone has created the shared folder, causing early files to land in temporary or personal locations.
- Create a consistent place for project files.
- Cut a repetitive setup step from each launch.
- Make it easier to start work right after intake.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and Dropbox once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Dropbox folder for each project signaled by your webhook, using the project details available in the request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project intake and confirm the folder path.
