Look up PDF templates from an email request

When a message asks what document templates are available, have Notis retrieve the Craftmypdf template list for review.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

List PDF Templates

Tool to retrieve a paginated list of PDF templates. Use when you need to browse available templates before generating a PDF.

Why this helps

A simple question about available templates can mean interrupting your work to search another tool.

  • Retrieve the available Craftmypdf templates after a qualifying email arrives.
  • Keep the lookup and its run report together in Notis.
  • Avoid opening a separate app for an initial template search.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Craftmypdf once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, describe which messages should prompt a template lookup and where to review the result.
  • 4Pick New Gmail Message Received Trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real email asking about available templates.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow send the template list to the email sender?

The listed action retrieves a paginated template list. It does not send an email, so review the result in the run report and handle any reply separately.

Can it generate a PDF too?

This workflow only lists templates. For PDF generation, use Craftmypdf's Create PDF Asynchronously action in an automation with a suitable template and instructions.
