Refresh a reference list from a complete approved set
When an approved source defines the full list, prepare a deliberate replacement update with its implications made clear.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Bulk update list elements
Replaces all objects in a metadata list, soft-deleting existing objects not included.
Why this helps
Reference data can drift, but replacing a list without a verified complete set could remove needed entries.
- Keep reference data aligned to a source that defines a complete set.
- Make replacement behavior explicit before execution.
- Reduce manual list cleanup when a full approved refresh is appropriate.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AgentQL and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation asking Notis to research the approved source and bulk update only the specified metadata type when the webhook or instruction supplies a complete, reviewed replacement set.
- 3Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real example in a safe list and verify the complete incoming set before updating.
Questions about this workflow
What does bulk update do?
It replaces objects for the specified metadata type and soft-deletes objects not present in the incoming list.
Can it run from research alone?
Only use it when the source and supplied data represent the complete approved list. Missing or partial data could cause existing objects to be soft-deleted.
