Make Airtable permission changes easier to review
Permission updates deserve a clear check of who needs access and who should be informed. Leave a Cody checklist that makes those questions easy to pick up.
Trigger
Base Metadata Changed
Triggers when an existing Airtable base changes its name or permission level.
Action
Create Document
Tool to create a new document with text or HTML content in Cody AI. Use when you need to add documents to Cody's knowledge base with up to 768 KB of content.
Why this helps
Access changes can leave uncertainty about whether the right people still have the right level of access.
- Prompt a deliberate review after permission changes.
- Keep an accessible record of the change for later context.
- Name unknown access details so an owner can verify them.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Cody once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for permission review follow-up.
- 3Describe in one instruction that a permission level change should create a Cody checklist with available details and questions about intended access and communication.
- 4Pick the Airtable Base Metadata Changed trigger.
- 5Choose where run reports go and test with one real permission change event.
Questions about this workflow
Does it grant or revoke access?
No. The workflow records the event and prompts a review. It does not change Airtable permissions.
Will it know who should have access?
That baseline must be supplied by your team. The note can raise the question if no expected access policy is available.
