Put follow-up context beside the record
Keep a donor-related note close to its Airtable record by having Notis add the context included in a Blackbaud webhook request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Comment
Creates a new comment on a specific record within an airtable base and table.
Why this helps
Useful follow-up context is easy to miss when it lives in a separate message or meeting note.
- Keep context attached to the relevant record.
- Make the next step easier to understand at a glance.
- Avoid searching separate channels for the original note.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blackbaud and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the comment context to add and how to identify its Airtable record.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and have the Blackbaud process send the needed details to Notis.
- 4Select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the comment is on the intended record.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow find the record from a name alone?
Only if the supplied information identifies the correct Airtable record unambiguously. Include a reliable record identifier when available.
Where does the comment text come from?
The comment can use context supplied in the webhook request or details available to Notis from Blackbaud.
