- 5Test the summary and confirm it identifies the datasets and their available metadata.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow calculate trends?
No. It discovers timeseries datasets. A separate request must select a dataset, variables, geography, and period to retrieve values.
What topics can the catalog review focus on?
Specify the economic questions or topics in the automation instructions so Notis can summarize relevant catalog entries.
