Prepare a signature draft from an intake webhook

When a trusted intake flow sends a webhook, Notis can prepare a Dropbox Sign unclaimed draft for someone to review and claim later.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Unclaimed Draft

Tool to create an unclaimed draft that can be claimed via a unique URL. Use when you need to prepare a signature request or document send that will be finalized later by someone else through the claim URL.

Why this helps

Requests often arrive before a contract owner has time to finish preparing the signature package.

  • Turn an intake signal into a draft without manually starting from scratch.
  • Let an authorized owner finalize the request later through the claim URL.
  • Keep preparation separate from sending to signers.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create an unclaimed Dropbox Sign draft from the document and request details received in the webhook.
  • 4Pick a webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example containing the required document and request details, then review the returned claim URL.

Questions about this workflow

Does creating the draft send it to signers?

No. An unclaimed draft can be finalized later by someone else through its claim URL.

What must the webhook provide?

It must provide the document and request details required to create the draft. Missing information needs to be supplied by the intake flow or user.

Can this be used with Jira?

Yes, if an external process sends Notis a webhook with the needed data. The trigger for this workflow is the webhook, not a Jira event.
