Add new Airtable workflow context to a Convolo character
A new view can expose a useful slice of your team's process. Ask Notis to assess it and refresh a character's backstory when it contains relevant context.
Trigger
View Created
Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.
Action
Update Character Backstory
Tool to update a character's backstory. Use when you need to modify the backstory of an existing character after confirming its ID. Only the provided fields will be updated.
Why this helps
New views can represent an important process or audience, but their purpose may never make it into your conversational AI guidance.
- Turns view creation into a timely review prompt
- Adds context to an existing character when useful
- Avoids manually monitoring every view
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Convolo ai once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to review the new view and update the identified character's backstory only with useful context you provide or approve.
- 4Pick Airtable View Created as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real view and confirm the backstory change is accurate.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis infer what the view means?
Notis can analyze returned information, but provide or identify the intended purpose when Airtable does not supply it.
