Notis

Send inventory handoffs by email

End an inventory session with a handoff everyone can follow.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Send Email

Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.

Why this helps

Work stalls when status and ownership stay in someone's head.

  • Make ownership explicit
  • Capture open issues
  • Reduce repeated status questions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Boxhero and Gmail in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation describing the handoff structure and recipients.
  • 3Tell Notis to email the Boxhero status, unresolved issues, and next owner details.
  • 4Choose notis_webhook and connect the webhook caller.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one handoff request.

Questions about this workflow

Can the handoff include links?

Yes. Include the relevant links in the Boxhero request or prompt.

Can it send to several recipients?
