Notis

Keep an active content environment available

Schedule a refresh for a designated sandbox during a period of ongoing content work to extend its time to live.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Refresh Sandbox

Extend a sandbox's lifetime to prevent it from timing out.

Why this helps

An environment can time out while content work is still underway, forcing a context switch to recover it.

  • Extends the time to live of a designated sandbox.
  • Automates a recurring maintenance step during an active work period.
  • Helps reduce interruptions caused by sandbox expiry.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agility CMS and E2B once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what outcome you want from any channel.
  • 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: refresh the designated E2B sandbox while the Agility content work period is active.
  • 4Choose a Notis schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real scheduled run and confirm the designated sandbox TTL is refreshed.

Questions about this workflow

Does refreshing change the sandbox's timeout setting?

It extends the sandbox time to live. Use the timeout action when you need to set or replace a specific lifetime.

Which sandbox does it refresh?

The automation needs a designated sandbox ID available to it. The workflow does not discover one from Agility CMS.
