Notis

Keep a directory of views for editorial research

Give researchers a compact directory of Affinity saved views they can consider for content work.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get metadata on saved views

Retrieves metadata for saved views on a list.

Why this helps

Teams often repeat the same search for research views because the useful options are hard to remember.

  • Create a recurring view metadata reference.
  • Reduce repeated discovery work.
  • Help researchers choose views based on available metadata.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and Affinity once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to summarize saved view metadata that may support editorial research.
  • 4Pick a notis_cron schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real run and check the directory.

Questions about this workflow

Does this produce a directory of saved view entries?

No. It summarizes saved view metadata, not the rows inside those views.

Can Notis explain what a view is for?

It can summarize returned metadata and your instruction, but any purpose not represented in the metadata must be supplied by you.
