Create a recurring PDF snapshot for your archive
Keep periodic page snapshots ready to file or share, with a Gmail draft that includes the PDF and date context.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
When a page needs periodic documentation, relying on memory to save a copy leads to gaps.
- Create a dated PDF capture of a configured page on a recurring schedule.
- Prepare a contextual email draft for an archive or records mailbox.
- Make regular snapshots easier to review and file.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Api2pdf and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the outcome in one instruction: capture the configured URL as a PDF and create a Gmail draft to the archive recipient with the date and source URL in the message.
- 3Pick a recurring Notis schedule as the trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test one run and confirm the date, URL, PDF, and draft recipient.
Questions about this workflow
Does the automation create a permanent archive?
It prepares a PDF and an email draft. Your archive process depends on where you send or store the document.
Can I use this for a page that changes?
Yes, if the configured URL remains accessible. Each run captures the page available at that time.
