- Create a durable summary when the base structure changes.
- Make schema updates easier to scan and revisit.
- Reduce the effort of manually recording routine changes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Customjs once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to turn the schema change event details into a concise HTML summary and convert it to PDF.
- 4Pick the Airtable Base Schema Changed trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real schema change and review the resulting PDF.
