Send updated protocol pages to CommCare

Keep CommCare aligned when a controlled Confluence protocol changes.

Trigger

Page Updated

Triggers when a Confluence page is updated (any edit that creates a new version).

Action

Submit Form to CommCare

Tool to submit an XForm to CommCare following the OpenRosa standard. Use when you need to submit form data with complete XML including required metadata fields (deviceID, timeStart, timeEnd, username, userID, instanceID).

Why this helps

Protocol revisions require manual copying and can leave CommCare with stale instructions.

  • Reduces stale protocol records
  • Creates a repeatable revision process
  • Surfaces missing submission metadata

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Confluence and CommCare once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation describing how approved page revisions should be represented in the XForm.
  • 3Pick Page Updated as the trigger.
  • 4Select a report channel and test with one revised protocol.

Questions about this workflow

How should approval be represented?

Include approval status and revision details in the page content or instruction so Notis can check them.
