Surface document records for your next review
Search spreadsheet content on a recurring schedule so document records are ready when it is time to review them.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Search Spreadsheets
Search for google spreadsheets using various filters including name, content, date ranges, and more.
Why this helps
Important document records can be hard to find when they are buried in spreadsheets and reviewed only when someone remembers.
- Bring relevant spreadsheet records into a planned review.
- Use available search filters to narrow results.
- Reduce manual spreadsheet browsing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and describe which document-related spreadsheet records should be surfaced.
- 3Pick a recurring Notis schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real example and confirm the search criteria match available spreadsheet content.
Questions about this workflow
Does the search find every document in Affinda?
It searches Google spreadsheets. It only finds document information recorded in searchable spreadsheet content or otherwise available to Notis.
Can the search use criteria such as dates?
The action supports various search filters, including date ranges. Use criteria that are available in the spreadsheet.
