Prepare transaction escalations for review
Capture the alert context in a draft when it matches the criteria you care about.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Writing an escalation from scratch during an unexpected transaction alert adds friction at the wrong moment.
- Apply criteria you define instead of an assumed anomaly rule.
- Keep relevant webhook details together for review.
- Avoid sending an escalation before a person checks it.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blocknative and Gmail once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, describe the unusual conditions to watch for and ask Notis to draft an escalation using supplied alert details.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real matching alert and confirm the draft accurately reflects it.
Questions about this workflow
Does Blocknative provide a universal anomaly definition?
No. State the conditions you want to treat as unusual and ensure the webhook includes the relevant data.
Will the workflow send the escalation?
No. It creates a draft so you can check the context and recipients first.
