Give past Beeminder goals a useful review
Past goals can offer useful context for what you take on next. Ask Notis to retrieve archived goals on a schedule and summarize the history for reflection.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Archived Goals
Tool to retrieve archived goals for a specified user. use when you need to inspect a user's past archived goals.
Why this helps
Archived goals can disappear from view, making it harder to learn from previous commitments when planning new work.
- Bring archived commitments back into view for reflection.
- Support planning with a scheduled historical summary.
- Spend less time searching through goal archives manually.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for your archive retrospective.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve archived Beeminder goals and summarize useful patterns or details that are present in the returned data.
- 4Choose a Notis schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and refine the summary instruction if needed.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis infer why a goal was archived?
Only if that reason is present in the returned data or you provide it. The workflow should not assume missing history.
Does the action include active goals too?
No. This workflow uses the archived-goals action. Create a separate review if you also want active goals.
