Update a document automation when a ticket reveals a process change

Keep document workflows aligned with what customers are asking for now.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

Triggers when a new ticket is created in a specified Zendesk view.

Action

Update Automation

Tool to update an existing automation's settings in DocsAutomator. Only the fields included in the request are updated. Use when you need to modify automation properties like title, template link, locale settings, or activation status.

Why this helps

Support teams spot process changes in tickets but forget to update the automation that produces their documents.

  • Keep automations aligned with current support needs
  • Turn recurring ticket signals into configuration updates
  • Avoid separate manual review of every workflow setting

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Docsautomator once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to assess each new ticket and update the specified Docsautomator automation when a documented process change is evident.
  • 3Name the intended outcome and the automation settings Notis may update in one instruction.
  • 4Pick New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one representative ticket and confirm the update.

Questions about this workflow

Will every ticket change the automation?

No. Your instruction can tell Notis to update only when the ticket contains a clear process change.

Can this update any Docsautomator property?

It can request supported automation settings such as title, template link, locale settings, or activation status.
