Notis

Review a weekly sample of indexed labor records

Get a scheduled, bounded search through labor records that are already indexed in Elasticsearch.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Query Index

Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.

Why this helps

A wide, open-ended data review can take too long to start and finish.

  • Keep the search focused on a defined period
  • Summarize only records returned by the query
  • Make recurring review easier to start

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Elasticsearch once and confirm the index contains the labor-record fields and dates you need.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to query a defined recent period of labor records and summarize the results without inferring missing data.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the index supports the period and filters requested.

Questions about this workflow

Can it calculate a week-over-week change?

Only if the query returns the needed periods and fields, and your instruction defines the comparison. Missing baselines cannot be inferred.

Does it retrieve labor records directly from 7shifts?

No. It searches records already available in Elasticsearch.

Can I set the period in the instruction?

Yes. Describe the time period you want Notis to query, based on dates or time fields actually present in your index.
