Action

Why this helps

When files accumulate, locating the current sheet can take attention away from the decision you need to make.

  • Surface relevant spreadsheets on a schedule.
  • Reduce time spent hunting through files.
  • Make recurring reviews easier to start.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, describe what spreadsheets to search for and how Notis should summarize the matching results.
  • 4Pick a recurring Notis schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real search and review the returned spreadsheet matches.
