Get American Business Survey
Tool to retrieve annual business survey (abs) data for a specified year and endpoint.
Why this helps
Business research requests get buried while you figure out which annual survey endpoint to query.
- Turn an inbox request into a targeted survey lookup.
- Keep the requested year and endpoint visible in the report.
- Summarize retrieved results for faster review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt to identify the requested ABS year and endpoint and summarize the returned data.
- 3Pick New Email Received as the trigger.
- 4Choose where reports go and test with one real request that names a year and endpoint.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow choose the endpoint automatically?
The prompt can use details in the email to identify the requested endpoint. If the request is ambiguous, it should report what is missing instead of guessing.
Can I request any year?
The action retrieves ABS data for a specified year and endpoint. Availability depends on the Census bureau data provided for that year and endpoint.
