Notis

Answer list questions without hunting through metadata

Send a list question to Notis and get a report based on the entries Datascope returns for the requested list type.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get all list elements

Retrieves all items from a specified metadata list.

Why this helps

Finding and reviewing a reference list takes people out of the task they were trying to complete.

  • Retrieve all entries from a specified metadata list.
  • Answer a concrete question using the returned list data.
  • Keep list checks close to the request that prompted them.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Abstract and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, say how to identify the requested list type and summarize entries against the supplied question.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real list type and question.

Questions about this workflow

What list types can I request?

The action retrieves all items from a specific metadata list. The request must identify a list type supported by your Datascope account.

Does this modify list entries?

No. Get all list elements retrieves entries; it does not create or update them.

What if the list type is missing from the request?

Tell Notis to ask for the list type or report that it is missing before attempting the lookup.
