Notis

New form submission, FreshBooks projects in Slack

When a lead or client submits your form, that webhook tells Notis to pull your FreshBooks projects into Slack, so you land on the conversation already knowing what is on your plate.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

List Projects

Tool to list all projects for a business. use after confirming the business id.

Why this helps

Inbound requests arrive with no context, forcing you to stop and reconstruct your current workload before you can even respond.

  • Get workload context the moment a form comes in
  • Respond to inbound requests without scrambling
  • Connect any form to FreshBooks with one webhook

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and FreshBooks to Notis once from the portal.
  • 2In the portal, open Automations and choose New Automation.
  • 3Describe the outcome: when my form webhook fires, list my FreshBooks projects and post them to Slack.
  • 4Select the incoming webhook trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
  • 5Submit a test form entry to confirm the project list posts.

Questions about this workflow

Which forms work?

Any form that can send an HTTP request on submission, which covers most modern form tools.

Do I map form fields to FreshBooks?

No mapping. The plain-language prompt tells Notis what to do when the webhook fires.
