Why this helps

Changes to a base's name or permissions can surprise the people who depend on it, especially when the update happens outside their usual workflow.

  • Surface base access changes in a familiar team channel.
  • Help collaborators understand why access may differ.
  • Reduce confusion after a base rename or permission update.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtable and Basecamp once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to explain the base name or permission change and post a short notice to the appropriate Basecamp Campfire.
  • 4Choose the Airtable Base Metadata Changed trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real base metadata change and review the chat post.
