Keep agreement details aligned with confirmed discussion updates
When a discussion confirms a change, carry the verified details into the relevant Documenso fields and keep the agreement accurate.
Trigger
New Canvas Discussion Message
Polls Canvas discussion topics for new messages.
Action
Update Document Fields
Tool to update one or more fields on a document. Use when you need to adjust properties of existing fields post-creation.
Why this helps
Agreement details can lag behind a decision made in a discussion, creating rework or confusion later.
- Use a discussion message as context for a confirmed field change.
- Update fields on the corresponding existing agreement.
- Reduce re-entry of details after course decisions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canvas and Documenso once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis which messages contain confirmed changes, how to identify the document and fields, and what values to use.
- 4Pick New Canvas Discussion Message as the trigger, choose where run reports go, and test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis decide which messages contain a final decision?
Provide clear criteria in your instruction and test with a real example. The trigger reports new messages; it does not define your decision rules.
Does this change document properties or form fields?
This action updates document fields. Use the document update action for document properties.
