Questions about this workflow
Can this work with custom variables?
Yes, when the request names valid variables for the dataset and year. The prompt should ask Notis to identify missing or invalid details.
Does a 5-year estimate describe one specific year?
ACS 5-year estimates combine data collected over a five-year period. State the requested estimate year clearly in the prompt or email.
