Notis

See how document processing changes over time

Turn stored extraction results into a regular trend summary based on the fields your data actually contains.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Execute ClickHouse Query

Runs a database query and returns the results.

Why this helps

Changes in document mix or intake volume are difficult to see without repeating queries over consistent periods.

  • Compare periods using fields present in the table.
  • Review trends without rewriting the query each time.
  • Keep operational changes visible in a concise report.

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.
  • 3Specify the table, available date field, category, and periods to compare in the query instruction.
  • 4Choose a notis_cron schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one run and verify the date boundaries and grouping.

Questions about this workflow

Can it explain why a trend changed?

It can summarize returned records. Explanations beyond the available data require additional context.

What if there is no usable date field?

A time-based trend needs dates in the table. Use another grouping or add a date value to the stored data.
