Automate Lead Follow-up Tasks via Webhook

An external system triggers a webhook, and Salesforce creates a follow-up task automatically. No follow-up ever gets forgotten.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create task

Creates a new task in salesforce to track activities, to-dos, and follow-ups related to contacts, leads, or other records.

Why this helps

You intend to follow up with a prospect after a certain time window, but it's not urgent enough to remember. Days pass. The follow-up never happens. The prospect feels abandoned and goes with a competitor.

  • External systems can trigger follow-up tasks automatically
  • No prospect falls through the cracks
  • Enables integration with custom tools and scheduling systems
  • Automates prospecting workflows

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce to Notis.
  • 2Create a new automation named 'Webhook Lead Follow-up'.
  • 3Set the prompt to: 'When a webhook is received with a prospect name and email, create a Salesforce task to follow up with that prospect. Set the task due date to 3 days from now.'
  • 4Select 'Notis Webhook' as the trigger and copy the unique webhook URL.
  • 5Test by sending a sample webhook payload to the URL.

Questions about this workflow

What data should the webhook include?

At minimum, the prospect name. Optionally include email, company, and notes. Notis will interpret whatever you send and create the task.

Can I customize the follow-up timing?

Yes. Tell Notis the follow-up window (e.g., '2 days', 'end of week', '1 week') in your automation prompt.
