Notis

Why this helps

Collection settings can drift from the plan when updates get lost among other setup tasks.

  • Apply specified changes to a collection.
  • Make configuration updates part of a planned routine.
  • Keep a report of the returned change details.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AimTell and Countdown API once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it Collection Settings Update.
  • 3Tell Notis which collection to update and provide the exact settings changes; ask it to report any unavailable or missing fields.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real collection and verify the returned setting changes.

Questions about this workflow

Will the automation choose settings for me?

No. Specify the intended changes and provide any values needed for the update.

Can this start the collection too?

No. Updating collection settings and starting its queue are separate actions.
