Create Control D custom rules when Airtable structure changes

A schema update can flag a need for policy rules. Ask Notis to create the rules you define in the Control D profile you identify.

Trigger

Base Schema Changed

Triggers when tables, fields, or views change in an Airtable base.

Action

Create Custom Rules for Profile

Tool to create custom rules for a profile. Use after confirming the profile ID and preparing rule definitions. Provide a list of rule objects matching the API schema.

Why this helps

Policy follow-up can fall behind when Airtable's underlying structure changes and rule updates live in a separate system.

  • Turn a schema event into a concrete custom rule creation task.
  • Keep rule definitions explicit and reviewable in the instruction.
  • Capture the result in a run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtable and Control D once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for creating Control D custom rules after schema changes.
  • 3Tell Notis the target profile and the rule definitions to create when this base schema changes.
  • 4Pick Airtable Base Schema Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real schema change and review the created rules in the run report.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis invent rule definitions from a changed field?

The instruction should state the rule definitions or a clear interpretation grounded in information available to the workflow. Do not rely on unavailable history or assumptions.

Does this create rules inside a folder?

This uses the root-profile custom rule creation action. Folder-specific rule creation is a separate action.
