Notis

Turn important Salesforce record changes into documents

When a monitored record changes, have Notis prepare the document that helps your team act on it.

Trigger

Record Updated (Generic SObject)

Triggers when monitored fields change on any Salesforce SObject. You specify the SObject type and which field values should be returned in the payload. The trigger uses SystemModstamp to detect changes regardless of which specific field changed.

Action

Generate documents from template

Tool to generate document(s) from a template by merging JSON data or uploading a data file. Use when you need to programmatically produce one or more documents and receive metadata including a download URL.

Why this helps

A meaningful record update can require a document, but remembering to create it adds another interruption.

  • Connect document creation to monitored Salesforce record changes.
  • Use returned record values in a template-based document.
  • Reduce missed document follow-through after updates.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Salesforce and Docugenerate once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel; name it and describe the document outcome in one instruction.
  • 3Pick Record Updated (Generic SObject) as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 4Test with one real record of the SObject you monitor.
