Trigger automations in Lawcus upon submit in DecisionVault

How does it work?

There are 3 parts to making this work:

  • We include the unique identifier of the Lawcus matter in the standard link that you send the client to create an account and start on their questionnaire.
  • Then, when the client submits their questionnaire DecisionVault sets a certain custom field in Lawcus on that matter.
  • This can be set as the trigger for automation flows in Lawcus (e.g. to create tasks or stop emailing client reminders)

How to set it up?

1. Create a custom field in Lawcus

Create a Matter level custom field in Lawcus, make it a "Checkbox" type and give it a name (e.g. "DV Questionnaire Submitted")

1---lawcus-custom-field

2. Map this new custom field in DecisionVault

Open your Lawcus integration settings in DecisionVault (from the integration settings page) and map the new custom field.

3. Set up / change the standard link

In your Lawcus email template change the standard link to include the matter's unique identifier.

The following gets added to the end of the standard link:
/lwc/${Matter.Uuid}

3---link-in-lawcus-email

This results in links that look like this:

4. Set up the automation in Lawcus

You want to create an automation that triggers when the matter gets updated - and to trigger it at the right time you'll want to set the following entry conditions:

  • DV Questionnaire Submitted is "Yes" (the custom field you created in step 1)
  • Stage is (some stage in your pipeline).

By including the stage you guard against the automation executing erroneously while in other stages

5. Finished

Now a client can click the link from their email, create an account and start on the questionnaire - and then when they submit the questionnaire the workflow in Lawcus gets triggered.
