Keep important Dovetail highlights in view

Receive a regular digest of research highlights, with a brief summary that makes the main points easier to revisit.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

List Highlights

List highlights from notes and projects in your workspace.

Why this helps

Highlights are useful in the moment, but they can be hard to remember or revisit across a busy week.

  • Bring research highlights back to attention regularly.
  • Get a concise summary in your selected report channel.
  • Reduce the need to reopen Dovetail just to see what was captured.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the highlights digest.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve the relevant Dovetail highlights and summarize them without adding unsupported conclusions.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a destination for run reports.
  • 5Test one run and make sure the digest is useful and faithful to the highlights.

Questions about this workflow

Can the digest focus on a topic?

Include the topic or available filtering criteria in your instruction. If the highlights action returns a broader list, Notis can summarize only relevant returned items.

Does it create new Dovetail highlights?

No. This workflow lists existing highlights and reports on them.

Can it show what is new since the prior digest?

Only if the run history or a suitable baseline is available. Otherwise, the digest summarizes the current returned highlights.
