Put selected payment checks on a schedule

For a known set of transaction IDs, schedule recurring status checks and receive the returned payment details in a run report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Payment Transaction

Retrieves payment transaction details from Blackbaud SKY Payments API. Use this to check transaction status, amounts, payment methods, and error details. Transaction IDs come from payment processing endpoints, checkout callbacks, batch operations, or webhook notifications. Requires: Payments API subscription key (Bb-Api-Subscription-Key) and OAuth Bearer token. This retrieves existing transactions; it does not process new payments.

Why this helps

Repeated status checks take focus away from other work, especially when transaction IDs and their outcomes are spread across tools.

  • Set a recurring rhythm for selected transaction checks.
  • Collect returned statuses and errors in one report.
  • Spend less time reopening payment records one at a time.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blackbaud once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and enter a name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis which transaction IDs to retrieve and how to summarize the returned status; supply the IDs or their source in your instruction.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real transaction ID and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

Can it scan every payment transaction?

The listed action retrieves details by transaction ID. Specify the IDs or a reliable source for them.

Does it retry failed payments?

No. It retrieves transaction details and errors for review; it does not retry payments.

How often can it run?

Choose a recurring schedule in the automation setup that suits your review routine.

Add Gifts To Batch

Add one or more gifts (donations) to an existing gift batch in Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT. Use this tool when you need to: - Append new gifts to an open batch for later processing - Batch multiple donations together before committing them - Add gifts with detailed information (payments, splits, custom fields) Prerequisites: - The batch must already exist (use a create batch action first if needed) - The batch must be in "open" status (not committed) - You need the batch_id (system record ID) and constituent_id (donor ID) for each gift Note: This action returns response details for all HTTP status codes (including errors). Check the status_code field in the response to determine success (200) vs errors (4xx/5xx).
