Start a Stripe payment from a completed request doc
Once a payment request is filled in, have Notis prepare the Stripe payment intent from its supplied details.
Trigger
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Action
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Why this helps
Payment requests can sit idle after someone fills them out because the next step requires switching tools and re-entering details.
- Move a completed payment request into Stripe promptly.
- Reduce repeated entry of amount and customer details.
- Keep payment setup tied to the document that contains the request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Docs and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the payment request.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to create a payment intent using the payment details supplied in the document.
- 4Pick the Document Placeholder Filled trigger for the specific request doc and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real completed request containing the amount, currency, and required customer or payment details.
Questions about this workflow
Does creating a payment intent complete the payment?
No. This action creates a payment intent to initiate and process payment. Additional customer confirmation may be required depending on the payment method.
What if a required payment detail is missing?
The details must be supplied in the document or instruction. Test a complete request and review the run report for any issue.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Docs to Stripe. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Docs triggers
Stripe actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Cancel subscription
Cancels a customer's active stripe subscription at the end of the current billing period, with options to invoice immediately for metered usage and prorate charges for unused time.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Confirm payment intent
Confirms a stripe paymentintent to finalize a payment; a `return url` is necessary if the payment method requires customer redirection.
New Document Created
Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.
Create Customer
Creates a new customer in stripe, required for creating charges or subscriptions; an email is highly recommended for customer communications.
Document Deleted
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.
Create an invoice
Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
Create a price
Creates a new stripe price for a product, defining its charges (one-time or recurring) and billing scheme; requires either an existing `product` id or `product data`.
Document Structure Changed
Triggers when a Google Doc's structure changes (headers/footers added/removed, tables/images count changes). 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
Create product
Creates a new product in stripe, encoding the request as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` by flattening nested structures.
Document Updated
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is updated or modified. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are updated.
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
