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

Why this helps
Population figures are easy to quote without noticing that sources use different vintages or geographic definitions.
- Review selected geographies on a predictable cadence.
- Keep vintage and dataset visible with every reported figure.
- Separate observed Census estimates from any interpretation.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AnyDB and Census bureau once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis the outcome you want.
- 3Specify the geographies, population measures, dataset, and vintage to retrieve.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and test with one real area.
Questions about this workflow
Can this tell me why population changed?
It can summarize differences in returned estimates, but the data alone does not explain causes. Provide additional evidence if you need causal analysis.
Will Notis choose the latest vintage automatically?
State the vintage you want or ask Notis to identify an available one and confirm it before the first report.
