Notis

Review upcoming retention dates without a manual sweep

Bring records with near-term retention dates into one concise draft for a monthly check.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create email draft

Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.

Why this helps

Retention dates are easy to overlook when checking records one by one takes too much time.

  • Focus a recurring review on dates that need attention.
  • See relevant records together in one message.
  • Leave retention decisions to the responsible reviewer.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Anonyflow and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify records with retention dates in the review window and draft a summary using only available metadata.
  • 4Pick the recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the records and date window.

Questions about this workflow

Will this delete or change records?

No. The action creates a Gmail draft; it does not modify Anonyflow records.

What if records have no retention date?

Notis can only identify dates that are present in records it can access. Missing dates should be supplied or flagged for review.
