Why this helps
A view can be created for a one-off task and then become important, while its audience or purpose stays undocumented.
- Keep a consistent record of view creation events.
- Include a purpose when it is supplied in the instruction or event data.
- Make new views easier to review later.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Carbone once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and describe the view record you want.
- 3Pick the Airtable View Created trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test by creating one real view and checking the generated document.
Questions about this workflow
Can the report explain why a view was created?
Only if that reason is present in the event data or supplied separately. The workflow cannot infer a creator's intent.
Will it document views that already exist?
No. It runs on new view creation events after the automation is set up.
