Choose a Bitquery data source that fits your question
When your Airtable base changes, revisit the data source for your next blockchain query. Notis can help select archive, realtime, or combined based on the question you provide.
Trigger
Base Metadata Changed
Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.
Action
Database Selection
Tool to select the database (archive, realtime, combined) to query at the top level of a graphql request. use after determining whether you need live, historical, or combined blockchain data.
Why this helps
Choosing the wrong time scope can lead to a query that misses historical context or current activity.
- Get a database selection recommendation tied to your stated query needs.
- Distinguish historical, current, and combined data use cases.
- Capture the rationale in your run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Bitquery once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to recommend archive, realtime, or combined for your stated blockchain question when the Airtable base metadata changes.
- 4Pick the Airtable Base Metadata Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real base metadata change example.
Questions about this workflow
Does this select and run a full data query?
The selected action is database selection. It helps choose the query data scope; it does not return blockchain records by itself.
What does the recommendation need from me?
State whether the question needs historical data, up-to-the-second data, or both. The trigger only signals a base name or permission change.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Airtable to Bitquery. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Airtable triggers
Bitquery actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Aliases Metric
Tool to use graphql aliases to rename fields in the response for clarity and disambiguation. use when you need to query multiple metrics with identical field names in one call.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Archive Database Query
Tool to query the archive database. use when you need full historical blockchain data (delayed by tens of minutes to hours).
Base Metadata Changed
Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.
Combined Database Query
Tool to query the combined database, which merges archive and real-time databases. use when you need both historical and up-to-the-second blockchain data in one request.
Base Schema Changed
Triggers when tables, fields, or views change in an Airtable base.
Conditional Metrics Snippet
Tool to generate a graphql metric snippet with conditional logic. use when you need to apply filters directly on metric calculations via the `if` attribute.
User Profile Changed
Triggers when the connected Airtable user's profile information changes.
Count Distinct Metric
Tool to use the count distinct metric to aggregate unique values for a field. use when you need to count the number of unique occurrences in a dataset.
View Created
Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.
Count Metric
Tool to use the count metric to aggregate the number of records matching a graphql query. use when you need simple record counts.
View Deleted
Triggers when a previously known Airtable view is deleted.
Database Selection
Tool to select the database (archive, realtime, combined) to query at the top level of a graphql request. use after determining whether you need live, historical, or combined blockchain data.
View Metadata Changed
Triggers when an Airtable view changes its name or type.
Early Access Program Query
Tool to access streaming data across various blockchain networks for evaluation purposes. use when querying chains not available via the v2 endpoint; limited to real-time data only.
