Why this helps
A fast response can feel risky when no one has time to inspect the final physical-mail design.
- Provides a concrete approval artifact.
- Reduces errors in event-specific copy and design.
- Keeps urgent outreach moving without sacrificing review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Weathermap and Thanks io to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis to generate a Thanks io PDF proof for a postcard using the incoming Weathermap event and the specified recipient details.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select the channel for run reports, and test with one real postcard.
Questions about this workflow
What is the difference between a preview and a proof?
A proof creates a PDF suitable for reviewing the postcard front and back before final sending.
Can the workflow send after approval?
This workflow only generates the proof. A separate instruction can handle the final send after review.
