Turn a word lookup into a presentation-ready definition
When a term needs explaining, send it to Notis by webhook and have a concise definition added to the presentation you specify.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Word Definition
Tool to get the definition of a word. use when you need to find the meaning of a specific word. e.g., "define the word apple."
Why this helps
Stopping to research unfamiliar terms breaks writing flow and can leave a presentation with unexplained language.
- Look up a specific word without switching research tools.
- Put the definition in the presentation where it is needed.
- Trigger the workflow from a connected system using an HTTP request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Slides and Apiverve once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction, including how to identify the word and which presentation should receive its definition.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and arrange for an HTTP request to start it with the needed word and presentation context.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real word and review the deck.
