Find Any Vendor Document in Seconds
Vendor documents live scattered across emails, cloud storage, and shared drives. When vendor info updates in Linear, Notis automatically organizes all their documents in Affinda, grouped and searchable.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Action
Create Collection
Tool to create a new collection. use after you have a valid workspace id and want to group documents by a specific extractor within that workspace.
Why this helps
You work with dozens of vendors, each one a scattered collection of contracts, insurance certificates, W-9s, and compliance documents. Finding a specific vendor document means searching three different places, and you often give up and just email the vendor again.
- Centralize all vendor documents in one searchable location
- Automatically organize by vendor name and category
- Never ask a vendor for a document twice
- Speed up onboarding and renewal processes
- Maintain compliance documentation automatically
- Reduce audit preparation time by 75%
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Affinda to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a vendor issue is updated with new document attachments, automatically create a collection in Affinda for that vendor and organize all documents by type.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Issue Updated'.
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by updating a vendor issue with a new document attachment.
Questions about this workflow
What document types should I include?
Contracts, W-9s, insurance certificates, business licenses, compliance certifications, and any other vendor-related docs. Affinda will organize them all by type.
Can collections be updated automatically?
Yes. Each time you update the vendor issue with a new document, Notis adds it to the vendor's collection in Affinda automatically.
What if a vendor has hundreds of documents?
Affinda handles large collections efficiently. You can organize by year, document type, or renewal date to keep things navigable.
How do I know when documents are expiring?
Notis extracts expiration dates from documents. You can set up a separate automation to send reminders before vendor certifications or contracts expire.
