Look up a row and send its context for review

Start from a known identifier and let AI help interpret the matching spreadsheet record.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Look up spreadsheet row

Finds the first row in a google spreadsheet where a cell's entire content exactly matches the query string, searching within a specified a1 notation range or the first sheet by default.

Why this helps

Finding a record and then carrying its details into an AI review adds small manual steps that interrupt focused work.

  • Finds the first row containing an exact match for the query.
  • Uses the returned row as context for an AI review.
  • Avoids manually copying record details into a chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apipie AI and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis which incoming value to look up, where to search, and what Apipie AI should assess in the matching row.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real identifier and confirm the right row is reviewed.

Questions about this workflow

Is the lookup fuzzy?

No. The action finds the first row where a cell's entire content exactly matches the query string.

What if the row is not found?

Ask Notis to report that no exact match was found and avoid producing a review without row data.

Can I limit where the lookup searches?

Yes. The action supports a specified A1 notation range, or it searches the first sheet by default.
