Notis

Rename a Contentful space from a request

Give Notis the space ID and the new name in a webhook request. It updates the space and reports what happened.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Update space

Updates the name of a specific space. notes: - the version number is required to ensure you're updating the latest version of the space. - you can get the current version from the sys.version field when fetching space details. - only the name of the space can be updated.

Why this helps

A simple space rename can get stuck in chat or a task list when someone has to switch tools and make the change manually.

  • Handle a requested rename without opening Contentful
  • Include the result in your chosen report channel
  • Keep the requested space ID and name together in one instruction

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to use the space ID and new name from each webhook request to update that Contentful space name.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request containing a space ID and new name.

Questions about this workflow

What should the webhook request include?

Include the Contentful space ID and the exact new name. Notis uses the current space version when updating, as required by the action.

Can this change other space settings?

No. The available Contentful action updates the space name only.

Where can I see the result?

Choose a report channel during setup and Notis will send the automation run report there.
