Questions about this workflow
What does the email need to contain?
Include the report data in a consistent structure and name the Carbone template ID in the instruction. Notis can use the available email content, but it needs enough information to supply the template data.
Does this create a new Carbone template?
No. This workflow renders a report using an existing template.
