Why this helps

A resilience review loses momentum when each cycle starts with finding the same data again.

  • Give an established resilience review a reliable cadence.
  • Keep the requested variables and places consistent across cycles.
  • Share findings in the channel used for run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Census Bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis which selected variables, geographies, and year to retrieve and how to summarize the results.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test one run with a real geography and selected variables.

Questions about this workflow

Can the schedule determine which variables matter?

No. Select the variables as part of your research design and include them in the instruction.

Can I compare cycles?

Ask for a comparison only when the returned periods and variables are comparable. Provide a baseline if the action does not return the earlier data you need.
