Why this helps

Finding the right geography and then starting a demographic query creates a tedious research handoff.

  • Combines address geocoding with detailed ACS 5-year estimates.
  • Supports area research using user-supplied years, variables, and geography.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addresszen and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Address Area ACS Profile.
  • 3Tell Notis to geocode a submitted address, then retrieve ACS 5-year estimates for its geography using the year and variables provided in the request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one address and a supported year and variables.

What does the request need to specify?
