Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get ACS 5-Year Estimates

Why this helps

Audience research gets stale when campaign plans continue but nobody remembers to revisit the source data.

  • Retrieve detailed five-year ACS estimates for a specified geography and year.
  • Get a recurring summary in the report channel you choose.
  • See when the campaign geography or requested year was not supplied.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveTrail and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it Scheduled Campaign Audience Profile.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the campaign geography and requested ACS year you provide, retrieve relevant 5-Year Estimates, and summarize them for audience planning.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real campaign geography and a specified year.

Questions about this workflow

Does the schedule know which campaign geographies to use?

Provide the campaign geography and requested year in the automation prompt or its input context; the workflow cannot infer an unprovided list.

Why use five-year estimates?

They provide detailed ACS estimates for a specified year and geography, which can be useful when detailed local data is needed.
