Notis

Prepare a dataset for your reporting workflow

Give a scheduled workflow the dataset details it needs, then let Notis initialize the structure and report the result.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Dataset

Creates a dataset in Databox.

Why this helps

A reporting workflow can be blocked when its Databox dataset has not been created yet.

  • Put dataset initialization on a schedule.
  • Keep record identity keys explicit.
  • Receive a report after the action runs.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Databox to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create the dataset from the title, source ID, and primary keys you provide.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify the dataset details.

Questions about this workflow

Can the schedule create a dataset without a source ID?

No. Provide the data source ID along with the title and primary keys.

Is a scheduled trigger an AnyDB event?

No. AnyDB has no exposed trigger events here; this workflow starts from a Notis schedule.
