Why this helps
A backlog can be hard to track when there is no quick, shared count of items still waiting for review.
- Make the backlog easier to see at a glance.
- Apply a consistent count rule over time.
- Surface records that need attention.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and ClickHouse once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis in plain language.
- 3Define backlog criteria using fields available in your ClickHouse table and ask Notis to query the matching count.
- 4Choose a notis_cron schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one run and compare the count with known records.
Questions about this workflow
