Move approved external events into the mobile workflow without retyping them.

Trigger

Action

Submit Form ODK Compatible

Tool to submit form data using ODK-compatible endpoint for Android client compatibility. Use when submitting XForm data to CommCare. Requires properly formatted XML with metadata including unique instanceID.

Why this helps

Data arrives through integrations but waits for someone to format it for CommCare.

  • Speeds up mobile processing
  • Standardizes XML submissions
  • Reduces handoff errors

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect the source service and CommCare once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation describing the ODK-compatible XML outcome.
  • 3Choose a Notis webhook trigger and register its endpoint with the source.
  • 4Select a report channel and test with one real webhook payload.
  • 5Verify the CommCare submission and report.
