Act on supporter updates without retyping
Send an update request and relevant supporter details to Notis, then update the identified Airtable record in one run.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update record
Modifies specified fields of an existing record in an airtable base and table; the base, table, and record must exist.
Why this helps
Small changes can linger when staff must remember to copy a supporter update into another system.
- Turn a supplied change request into a focused record update.
- Keep an existing Airtable record aligned with available source details.
- Reduce context switching for straightforward updates.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blackbaud and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe how to identify the existing record and which supplied details to update.
- 3Choose the webhook trigger and connect the request sender to its endpoint.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a known record and confirm only the intended details changed.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a missing Airtable record?
No. This workflow uses the update record action, which requires the base, table, and record to exist.
What if the request does not identify a unique record?
Have Notis report the ambiguity instead of updating a record. Include a reliable identifier in the request.
