Notis

Prepare a content model preflight for your planning session

Give everyone the same view of the available content types before the meeting, so discussion can start with useful context.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Get Content Types

Lists all content types and their defined structures in an environment.

Why this helps

Planning sessions lose momentum when attendees arrive without knowing which content structures already exist.

  • Provides attendees with shared structure context before a session.
  • Reduces time spent browsing the CMS together.
  • Helps the team distinguish existing models from proposed needs.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve and summarize the content types from the specified environment for the planning session.
  • 4Choose a one-time schedule before the session and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test against the intended environment and review the summary before sharing.

Questions about this workflow

Can the report say whether a new content type is needed?

Not by itself. The workflow can summarize existing types; the team must supply requirements and decide whether they fit.

Does this require a meeting integration?

No. It runs on a Notis schedule and uses the Contentful content type retrieval action.
