Never Wait Around for Document Processing
Documents take time to parse and process. Instead of checking Affinda constantly, Notis automatically subscribes you to document events so you're notified the instant documents are ready.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create RESTHook Subscription
Tool to create a new resthook subscription. use after confirming your webhook endpoint is ready to receive document event notifications.
Why this helps
You upload documents to Affinda and have to remember to check if they're done parsing. You either check too often (wasting time) or forget and miss the data for days. You're left waiting and context-switching constantly.
- Get instant notifications when documents finish parsing
- Stop checking tools manually for status updates
- Reduce time-to-insight by moving faster on parsed data
- Build workflows that react to document events
- Never miss a document update again
- Focus on work instead of status checking
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Affinda to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a document-tracking issue is created in Linear, automatically subscribe to Affinda document events and notify me when parsing is complete or document status changes.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Issue Created' with a label for document tracking.
- 4Choose your notification channel (Slack, email, etc.).
- 5Test by creating a sample document-tracking issue and uploading a document to Affinda.
Questions about this workflow
What events trigger notifications?
Document uploaded, parsing started, parsing complete, parsing failed, data extracted, and document status updated. You can customize which events matter to you.
Where will I get notifications?
Notis sends notifications through your chosen channel: Slack, email, Telegram, or in-app. You can route different event types to different channels.
Can I ignore certain document types?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'Only notify me when client contracts are parsed, not internal memos.' You can filter by document type, uploader, or category.
What if I'm away and don't want notifications?
You can pause subscriptions or route notifications to a team member. When you're back, you can catch up on all document events.
