Notis

Keep a clear view of your ClickHouse database schema

Ask Notis to retrieve and explain a database schema on a schedule, so you can get oriented before analysis work.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Why this helps

Finding out which tables exist and what they contain can interrupt focused work before a useful query even begins.

  • Get a concise overview of the database schema in a regular report.
  • Reduce time spent orienting yourself before analytics work.
  • Use the schema details to prepare more informed follow-up queries.

  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the schema brief.
  • 3Tell Notis which database schema to retrieve and how to summarize it for you.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real example and a valid database.
