Notis

Refresh your market snapshot on a schedule

Have Notis retrieve annual ACS estimates for your chosen geographies and send a concise run report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get ACS 1-Year Estimates

Retrieves the latest one-year American Community Survey estimates for a geographic area.

Why this helps

Market snapshots become stale when nobody remembers to repeat the same research.

  • Refresh ACS 1-year estimates on a recurring schedule.
  • Keep geography and requested variables consistent across runs.
  • Receive a run report without a manual research reminder.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgencyZoom and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve ACS 1-year estimates for the specified geographies and variables, then summarize results and identify the data year.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real geography and verify its coverage is suitable for 1-year estimates.

Questions about this workflow

Which geographies are appropriate for 1-year estimates?

Use geographies supported by the selected ACS 1-year dataset. Confirm coverage for each area in the returned data.

Can the schedule compare against the previous run?

Notis can compare results if prior output is available to the automation. The Census action itself retrieves the requested estimates.
