Update a Brex card status from a request
Send Notis the card identifier and requested status change. It updates Brex and reports the result.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update Card Status
Update the status of a card (activate/deactivate/terminate).
Why this helps
Card access changes can be missed when an approved request does not reach the person who updates Brex.
- Carry a specified card status change into Brex.
- Keep the card identifier and requested change together.
- See whether the update ran.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Brex once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to apply the requested status to the identified card, using requests that have passed your approval process.
- 4Select the webhook trigger and run report channel.
- 5Test with one real card status request.
Questions about this workflow
Can this deactivate a card when someone leaves?
Yes, if an authorized request identifies the card and asks for deactivation. The workflow does not identify departing users on its own.
Can Notis choose between deactivate and terminate?
No. Specify the intended status change in the request.
