- 5Test with one real schema change and review the generated document.
Questions about this workflow
What details can the document include?
Notis can use information returned by the trigger and connected apps. If it does not provide a full before-and-after change history, supply the missing context in your instruction or template.
Does this automation update Airtable?
No. It responds to the schema change by generating a document in Docugenerate.
