Handle refund requests with the right context
Bring the payment, request, and any relevant market context together before taking action.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
Why this helps
Refund requests can require switching between a customer message and transaction details before deciding what to do.
- Gather transaction context and the stated reason in one run.
- Use Census statistics only when regional context is relevant and available.
- Create a refund only when the request meets your stated authorization rule.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Census bureau and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for refund review.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the incoming request against Stripe charge or payment intent details, optionally include specified Census context, and create a full or partial refund only when the request explicitly meets your authorization rule.
- 4Choose a webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and review the refund result.
Questions about this workflow
Does Census data determine whether a refund is approved?
No. Census data is optional context and does not establish refund eligibility. Define your own approval rule in the instruction and request.
Can the workflow create a partial refund?
Yes, the Stripe refund action supports full or partial refunds. The request and your instruction should specify the amount or rule clearly.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Census bureau to Stripe. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Census bureau triggers
Stripe actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Cancel subscription
Cancels a customer's active stripe subscription at the end of the current billing period, with options to invoice immediately for metered usage and prorate charges for unused time.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Confirm payment intent
Confirms a stripe paymentintent to finalize a payment; a `return url` is necessary if the payment method requires customer redirection.
Create Customer
Creates a new customer in stripe, required for creating charges or subscriptions; an email is highly recommended for customer communications.
Create an invoice
Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Create a price
Creates a new stripe price for a product, defining its charges (one-time or recurring) and billing scheme; requires either an existing `product` id or `product data`.
Create product
Creates a new product in stripe, encoding the request as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` by flattening nested structures.
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
