Turn a documented return request into a prepared PDF and a Stripe refund tied to the supplied transaction.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
Why this helps
Refund requests can sit in an inbox while the transaction ID and return paperwork are tracked separately.
- Prepares the request document with Api2pdf.
- Creates a full or partial refund against a specified charge or payment intent.
- Keeps the transaction reference alongside the request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Api2pdf and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to prepare the return request with Api2pdf and create the requested Stripe refund using the supplied charge or payment intent ID.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real refund request and verify the transaction reference and refund.

Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Confirm payment intent
Confirms a stripe paymentintent to finalize a payment; a `return url` is necessary if the payment method requires customer redirection.
Create Customer
Creates a new customer in stripe, required for creating charges or subscriptions; an email is highly recommended for customer communications.
Create an invoice
Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Create a price
Creates a new stripe price for a product, defining its charges (one-time or recurring) and billing scheme; requires either an existing `product` id or `product data`.
Create product
Creates a new product in stripe, encoding the request as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` by flattening nested structures.
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
