Ways Notis can move work from Idealist to Certifier
Issue credentials after volunteer orientation

Recognize completed internships
Have Notis create, issue, and send an internship completion credential after your Idealist-linked process confirms the placement has ended successfully.
Issue verified service-hour awards
When a connected volunteer tracking process confirms a service-hour milestone, have Notis issue and send a Certifier award to the volunteer.
Credential fellowship cohort graduates
Use a Notis webhook to issue and email credentials when your Idealist-connected fellowship process marks a participant as a graduate.
Send credentials after nonprofit training
Issue a Certifier credential when your Idealist-connected nonprofit training process confirms that a learner completed the program.
Review the credential inventory weekly
Have Notis retrieve Certifier credentials on a steady schedule so your team can review the inventory without opening another admin loop.
Review available certificate and badge designs
Schedule a monthly Certifier design list so program owners can check the certificate and badge options available for upcoming Idealist opportunities.
Review Certifier groups for program awards
Have Notis list Certifier groups monthly so your team can keep the groups used for Idealist-related volunteer and internship awards in view.
Review engagement with issued awards
Schedule a weekly review of Certifier interactions for a specific Idealist program credential to understand how recipients engage with it.

Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
