Know what went into each merged PDF
Keep the source context and resulting PDF link together for every document package you merge.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a record
Creates a new record in a specified airtable table; field values must conform to the table's column types.
Why this helps
Merged files are hard to audit later when their source documents and purpose are not recorded together.
- Keep package purpose and available source context with the output.
- Find merged PDF links from Airtable.
- Make later review less dependent on memory.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Api2pdf and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to create a record for each merged PDF, using source and output details provided to the workflow.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real merge and review the saved context.
Questions about this workflow
Can the record list all source files?
It can if the webhook request or Api2pdf response available to Notis includes those details.
Does Airtable perform the merge?
No. Api2pdf performs the PDF work. Airtable stores a record of the workflow.
