Why this helps

Table changes can make it harder to understand what document data the destination expects.

  • Review columns and types on a recurring basis.
  • Make table structure easier to check when workflows change.
  • Keep a useful schema reference close at hand.

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 ClickHouse database and table, then ask Notis to retrieve its schema and summarize the columns.
  • 4Choose a notis_cron schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one run and verify the schema details match the table.

Questions about this workflow

Can this identify schema changes over time?
