Why this helps
It is difficult to know which Census tables to query when you have to search a dataset catalog manually.
- List table groups for a specified dataset and vintage.
- Identify likely relevant tables before querying variables.
- Prepare for group-based data requests with less manual browsing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and supply a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, specify the dataset and vintage, describe your topic, and ask Notis to identify relevant returned table groups.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real dataset and confirm the suggested groups appear in the returned list.
