Update document metadata from webhooks
Keep names and metadata synchronized as work changes.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Update Document
Tool to update a document's metadata. Use when renaming an existing document after confirming the document ID.
Why this helps
Documents drift out of sync when status or naming changes happen in another system.
- Keep documents easy to find
- Reflect external status changes
- Avoid manual renaming
