  • Shortens intake review
  • Helps identify next actions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 2Create an automation named Intake Folder List.
  • 3Tell Notis to list files in the Dropbox intake folder associated with each new response and summarize the result.
  • 4Pick the Typeform New Form Response trigger and choose where reports go.
  • 5Test with one response and confirm the listed files.

Questions about this workflow
