Review archived Beeminder goals from an email

When a message raises a question about a past commitment, Notis can retrieve your archived Beeminder goals and summarize the available history.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Get Archived Goals

Tool to retrieve archived goals for a specified user. use when you need to inspect a user's past archived goals.

Why this helps

Past commitments are easy to forget when their context is split between old messages and archived goals.

  • Find archived goal context in response to a relevant email.
  • Keep a historical review separate from a current goal check.
  • Reduce manual searching when a past commitment comes up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent mail and Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to retrieve and summarize archived Beeminder goals when a new email asks about a past goal or commitment.
  • 3Pick New Email Received as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real email asking about an archived goal.

Questions about this workflow

Will this recover data that Beeminder does not return?

No. The summary is limited to the archived goal information returned by Beeminder's Get Archived Goals action.

Can the automation compare a past goal with an active goal?

The prompt can ask for a comparison, but the archived-goal action only retrieves archived goals. Add another workflow if you also need active goal data.
