Turn important sheet changes into a PDF with attachments
When tracked values change, create a report PDF with supporting files included, so the information and its evidence stay together.
Trigger
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
Action
Generate document with attachments
Tool to generate a PDF with embedded attachments. Use when you need to bundle extra files into the PDF output.
Why this helps
A changed status or result can mean rebuilding a report and gathering its supporting files before anyone can act on it.
- React to a change in a specific range of cells.
- Keep supporting files embedded with the generated PDF.
- Make a reviewable report artifact available through returned document metadata.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Docugenerate once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, describe the report to create from changed values and identify the supporting files to attach.
- 4Pick Cell Range Values Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real range change and inspect the generated PDF.
Questions about this workflow
Which changes start the workflow?
A value change within the specified A1 range starts it.
Where do the attachments come from?
Name or provide the supporting files in your instruction and confirm they are available to the automation. The trigger itself supplies changed range values.
Will the PDF be emailed automatically?
No. This action generates a PDF with attachments and returns metadata. Delivery is not part of this event.
