Recover selected anonymized values for a changed schema
A schema change may require a previously anonymized value in a revised process. Recover only the strings the team is authorized to use.
Trigger
Base Schema Changed
Triggers when tables, fields, or views change in an Airtable base.
Action
Deanonymize Value
Tool to deanonymize one or more anonymized string values. use when you need to recover the original plaintext values after encryption-based anonymization. example: `deanonymizevalue().execute(deanonymizevaluerequest(data=["<anonymized string>"]))`
Why this helps
Teams can lose track of which anonymized strings are needed after a schema update and spend time locating an authorized recovery path.
- Provides a review checkpoint after tables or fields change.
- Recovers specified anonymized strings when authorized.
- Keeps the operation within the listed string value recovery action.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Anonyflow once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe which previously anonymized strings may be recovered and how authorization is confirmed.
- 3Pick the Airtable Base Schema Changed trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real anonymized sample that you are authorized to recover.
Questions about this workflow
Does the schema event identify which values should be recovered?
No. Specify the needed values and authorization context in your instruction or supply them during review.
Can this recover an entire JSON packet?
No. This workflow uses Deanonymize Value for anonymized strings. Deanonymize Packet is a separate action for JSON data packets.
Does every schema change cause recovery?
The automation can review the change, but its instruction should recover values only when a defined need and authorization are present.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Anonymize Value
Tool to anonymize a string or array of string values. use when you need to conceal sensitive text before storage or transmission. example: `anonymizevalue().execute(anonymizevaluerequest(data=['secret']))` limitations: only supports list of strings, not nested structures.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Deanonymize Packet
Tool to deanonymize a json data packet using your private key. use after receiving an anonymized packet to recover specific fields.
Base Metadata Changed
Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.
