Create user-role records and notify requesters via webhook

Automatically catch access request payloads across Webhooks by Zapier and Notion and Slack. Get instant role confirmations when access requests submitted, role selections updated, or submission ids deliveredβ€”so you can create employee records, create application records, and activate user app roles without manual provisioning.

How this automation activates user app roles

When access requests arrive without a reliable flow, access delays can block work and create security gaps. This automation catches incoming webhooks, builds user-role records in Notion, and sends Slack confirmationsβ€”so your team can provision access fast.
