Check dataset fields before using them in Airtop research
Know what a dataset actually contains before you plan a scrape around it.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Dataset Metadata
Retrieves the field definitions for a marketplace dataset.
Why this helps
A dataset's name may sound right while its available fields do not answer the research question.
- Retrieves field definitions for a selected marketplace dataset.
- Summarizes whether listed fields relate to a supplied research need.
- Helps catch missing data requirements before a scrape.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bright Data once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve metadata for your selected dataset and summarize its fields against the Airtop research question.
- 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule for periodic review, or adjust the instruction to run when you need the metadata.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real dataset ID and research question.
Questions about this workflow
Does this find a dataset automatically?
No. Provide the dataset to inspect. To discover candidates, use Bright Data's marketplace dataset listing action first.
Can it verify that a field is populated for every record?
Metadata describes field definitions, not completeness or quality for every record. Review actual sample or returned data before depending on a field.
Why use a schedule for metadata?
A schedule can refresh a review you want periodically. For a one-off check, create and run the automation when needed.
