Create a PDF when a file lands in OneDrive

New file, ready-to-share PDF. Let Notis spot a OneDrive upload and ask CraftMyPDF to generate the document in the background.

Trigger

OneDrive File Created Trigger

Triggers when a new file is created in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management for reliable duplicate prevention.

Action

Create PDF Asynchronously

Tool to queue asynchronous PDF generation via webhook. Use when you need to generate a PDF in the background and receive the result via a webhook.

Why this helps

Converting each new file by hand interrupts focused work and makes it easy to forget a document that needs to be shared.

  • Reduce repetitive document conversion
  • Keep newly added files moving through your document workflow
  • Generate PDFs asynchronously

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect OneDrive and CraftMyPDF once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis the PDF outcome you want.
  • 3Pick the OneDrive File Created trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real file.
