Send campaign announcements with a cat image ready

Start from a webhook and send your approved message with a cat image to your chosen recipients.

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

A campaign announcement can stall while someone searches for a suitable image and assembles the email.

  • Use Cats to find an image for the announcement.
  • Start the workflow with a webhook request.
  • Send the prepared message to recipients named in your instructions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cats and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Cat Campaign Announcement.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the approved announcement text, fetch a suitable Cats image, and send the email to the intended recipients.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger, set a channel for run reports, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Can this use a specific campaign message?

Yes. Include the approved message in the webhook request or the automation instruction.

Will it send to a mailing list automatically?

Only if the recipient address or addresses are provided and the Gmail action can use them. Review your recipient instructions carefully.
