Get American Business Survey

Why this helps

Annual business survey research can get delayed when every market question means rediscovering the right endpoint and rebuilding the request.

  • Retrieve American Business Survey data for a selected year and endpoint.
  • Create a reusable process for annual market research.
  • Keep the returned scope clear in a concise report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the annual business survey brief.
  • 3Tell Notis the American Business Survey year, endpoint, and the summary you need.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real year and endpoint and confirm the report matches the request.

Questions about this workflow

What does the action need?

It retrieves American Business Survey data for a specified year and endpoint. Include both in the automation instruction or run request.

Does a schedule guarantee that new data is available?

No. The schedule runs the query at the chosen time. The requested year and endpoint determine what the Census service can return.
