Bring kickoff responses into the proposal approval handoff

Use the approval moment to gather the client's latest kickoff answers, so starting work does not depend on remembering where they live.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Form Results

This tool retrieves the latest form results from a specified formsite form. it uses the get https://{server}.formsite.com/api/v2/results/latest endpoint to fetch results independently, handling required parameters such as form id, limit, page, and sort direction without referring to external resource ids.

Why this helps

Approval can arrive while the intake answers remain buried in a separate tool, delaying a clear project start.

  • Retrieve relevant kickoff answers at the handoff point.
  • Reduce delay between approval and reviewing client context.
  • Make the next action easier to pick up after interruptions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bidsketch and Formsite to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation or ask Notis to retrieve kickoff responses when an approval signal arrives.
  • 3Describe the relevant proposal and form in one plain-language instruction.
  • 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger and a reporting channel.
  • 5Send a test approval request and verify the retrieved results.

Questions about this workflow

Does Bidsketch approval trigger this directly?

No native Bidsketch trigger is available. Your backend or another external tool must send the webhook request.

Can it start the project automatically?

It retrieves responses for review; it does not create projects or change proposal status.
