Notis

Keep the research rationale with a new opportunity

When a company merits pipeline tracking, carry the research that supports the decision into the opportunity record.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create opportunity

Creates a new opportunity in salesforce with the specified information.

Why this helps

An opportunity can enter the pipeline without a clear explanation of why the company fits or what prompted the record.

  • Record the rationale alongside pipeline work
  • Reduce the gap between research and CRM entry
  • Make early opportunity handoffs easier to understand

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bigpicture io and Salesforce once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create it from your usual channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to research the submitted company, create an opportunity only when it meets your criteria, and include a concise rationale using research and supplied deal details.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real company and review the opportunity rationale and required details.

Questions about this workflow

What deal details need to come from me?

Provide details that company research cannot determine, such as your intended opportunity name, stage, close date, or account association when required by your Salesforce setup.

Can the rationale include a forecast?

Only if you provide the forecast basis or it is available from reliable Salesforce data. Company research alone does not establish a deal forecast.
