Turn a hiring request into a ready-to-review plan sheet

Capture role planning details in a structured sheet when a request arrives.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create sheet from JSON

Creates a new google spreadsheet and populates its first worksheet from `sheet json`, which must be non-empty as its first item's keys establish the headers.

Why this helps

A hiring request often starts as a conversation, then someone has to turn it into a usable planning artifact.

  • Turn requests into a usable planning sheet
  • Keep role planning details in a shared artifact
  • Avoid starting each plan from a blank spreadsheet

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ashby and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create it.
  • 3Describe the hiring plan fields and how to use request details in one instruction.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the populated sheet has the needed headers.

Questions about this workflow

What information must the webhook provide?

Include planning details that Ashby does not contain, such as a proposed priority or budget. Notis can use available Ashby information alongside the request.

Can it create an empty sheet?

The create sheet from JSON action needs non-empty sheet data. Include at least one populated record or provide the role details in the webhook request.
