Action

Why this helps

Uploaded files can introduce unfamiliar terminology without a quick explanation for the team.

  • Support file handoffs
  • Reduce terminology gaps
  • Keep upload reviews focused

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Confluence and Dictionary api once.
  • 2Create an automation asking Notis to use the attachment event context and define one relevant word when a suitable term is available.
  • 3Select New Attachment Added and choose the report destination.
  • 4Test with an attachment added to a documentation page.

Questions about this workflow

Can it read every file type?

The trigger can optionally filter by media type, but the dictionary action still needs a specific word to look up.

What if no word is available?

Instruct Notis to report that the event lacked a suitable lookup term.
