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

Why this helps
Important product updates can go unnoticed when they only appear in a changelog.
- Bring product news to customers through Gmail.
- Use the details of a Beamer update as the basis for the message.
- Spend less time rewriting changelog notes into email copy.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beamer and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis which Beamer feature update to use and what customer email to send, including the intended audience and tone.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real update and verify the recipients and message before relying on it.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis determine the right customer audience from Beamer?
Only if that audience information is available or you provide it in your instructions. Otherwise, specify the intended recipients or audience.
Will Gmail send the email automatically?
This workflow uses Gmail Send Email. Review your prompt and test with a controlled example before using it with real recipients.
