Prepare a company context note on request

Keep requested company details and the reason for checking them together in an email draft.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

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

Research requested in the middle of a busy day can get separated from the decision it was meant to support.

  • Start research from an incoming request
  • Preserve the request's stated purpose
  • Create a draft that is easy to review and share

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Api ninjas and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation and name the context brief.
  • 3Tell Notis to look up the company named in the request and draft a Gmail note with returned details and the supplied reason for the lookup.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one company request and review the returned information.

Questions about this workflow

Can the request explain why the lookup is needed?

Yes. Include the reason in the request and ask Notis to retain it in the draft.

What happens if no company details are returned?

Tell Notis to say no usable details were returned and preserve the request context in the draft.
