Review BART service advisories for planned travel

Why this helps
Service changes can be easy to miss when travel plans are saved in documents and checked only once.
- Extracts station references from the supplied travel brief.
- Retrieves current BART service advisories on a schedule.
- Provides a recurring prompt to revisit plans when service information changes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Bart once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation from any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the supplied travel brief, identify its BART stations, and retrieve current service advisories relevant to those stations.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real travel brief and review the returned advisories.
Questions about this workflow
Does the schedule trigger monitor a document folder for changes?
No. The schedule starts the automation at the cadence you choose. The automation needs access to the travel brief through the prompt or connected workflow context.
Can it guarantee an advisory will be sent before a disruption?
No. It retrieves current advisories when the automation runs; it cannot guarantee advance notice or predict future service changes.
