Notis

Apply a sent approval to Contentful

Close the loop when you send the final naming decision.

Trigger

New Sent Message

Triggered when a new message is sent from the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Update space

Updates the name of a specific space. notes: - the version number is required to ensure you're updating the latest version of the space. - you can get the current version from the sys.version field when fetching space details. - only the name of the space can be updated.

Why this helps

Approved renames can sit unfinished because the decision and the actual Contentful change happen in separate tools.

  • Complete approved naming work quickly
  • Use the current Contentful version
  • Keep a traceable report of the change

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Contentful once.
  • 2Create an automation that acts only on sent messages containing an explicit approved space rename with an id and new name.
  • 3Select New Sent Message as the trigger.
  • 4Choose the report channel and test with one real approval.
