Action

Why this helps

Analytics work slows down when you do not know which database contains the data you need.

  • See available databases before choosing a query target.
  • Reduce time spent guessing where data lives.
  • Use discovery results to guide a follow-up schema check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and ClickHouse once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that lists databases relevant to the analytics request.
  • 3Choose a webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one real request and confirm the returned database list is understandable.

Questions about this workflow

Does listing databases identify the correct one automatically?

It returns the databases available in ClickHouse. The automation can summarize likely candidates, but the relevant data must be confirmed from the returned names or schema.

Can this also return query results?

This workflow uses the database listing action. A separate query is needed to retrieve analytical results.
