Keep routine Appdrag updates on track
Let a schedule run a Visual SQL UPDATE function and send its outcome to the channel where you manage follow-ups.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Visual SQL Update
Tool to execute a Visual SQL UPDATE via an AppDrag Visual UPDATE function. Use when you need to update database rows based on your Visual UPDATE mapping.
Why this helps
Routine database maintenance gets postponed when it depends on someone remembering to run the same update task.
- Put a repeatable Appdrag update on a schedule
- Review the run result without opening the database first
- Reduce missed maintenance steps
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appdrag once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe the outcome to Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, specify the existing Visual SQL UPDATE function to execute and what run results to call out.
- 4Pick the notis_cron trigger, choose its schedule, and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the configured update affects the intended records.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis decide which records to update?
The Visual SQL UPDATE function applies its existing Appdrag configuration. Notis does not provide field mapping or create the update rules.
What if the update depends on a stale-record threshold?
The Appdrag function must implement that condition, or you must provide the threshold and needed data in the workflow context. Notis cannot assume a history or baseline that is unavailable.
