Document Structure Changed

This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed
Action
Generate PDFs for Credentials

Why this helps
Final layout work finishes but PDF export remains a separate forgotten task.
- Links layout completion to export
- Reduces forgotten downloads
- Creates a consistent finalization step

- 1Connect Google Docs and Accredible certificates once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation describing which final structure change authorizes PDF generation.
- 3Pick Document Structure Changed as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one finalized document.
Questions about this workflow
Can it export only approved credentials?
Yes. Provide the approved credential IDs or a clear source for them.
What if the structure change is minor?
