Get a weekly recap of Basecamp project work
See what moved, what remains open, and what comes next in one draft you can use or share.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
A busy week makes it difficult to reconstruct what changed across projects before planning the next one.
- Rebuild project context at a regular cadence.
- Separate completed work from open tasks.
- Use a draft as a starting point for internal or client updates.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Basecamp and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to draft a weekly recap of Basecamp project activity, separating completed work, open work, and recorded next steps.
- 4Pick the notis_cron trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project week and review the recap draft.
Questions about this workflow
Can one recap cover several projects?
Yes, name the projects or scope in the instruction, provided the automation can access them.
Will the recap include a baseline comparison?
Only if the needed prior-period information is available to the automation or you provide it.
