Keep billing design variables easier to understand
Bring variable values and modes into a recurring review of your subscription experience.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get local variables
Retrieves all local/remote variables for a figma file/branch; crucial for obtaining mode-specific values which `/v1/files/{file key}/variables/published` omits.
Why this helps
Variables and modes can be hard to remember across files, slowing down design work after a context switch.
- Make file variables and modes easier to review.
- Reduce repeated digging through design files.
- Help designers resume work with more context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Billsby and Figma to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis conversationally for a recurring variable check.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve the variables and modes from the Figma file used for billing design and summarize them.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real file containing variables.
Questions about this workflow
Does this publish variables?
No. It retrieves local and remote variables from the file for review.
Is a Notis trigger required?

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add a comment to a file
Posts a new comment to a figma file or branch, optionally replying to an existing root comment (replies cannot be nested); `region height` and `region width` in `client meta` must be positive if defining a comment region.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add a reaction to a comment
Posts a specified emoji reaction to an existing comment in a figma file or branch, requiring valid file key and comment id.
Create a webhook
Creates a figma webhook for a `team id` to send post notifications for an `event type` to a publicly accessible https `endpoint`; an initial ping is sent unless `status` is `paused`.
Create dev resources
Creates and attaches multiple uniquely-urled development resources to specified figma nodes, up to 10 per node.
Create, modify, or delete variables
Manages variables, collections, modes, and their values in a figma file via batch create/update/delete operations; use temporary ids to link new related items in one request and ensure `variablemodevalues` match the target variable's `resolvedtype`.
Delete a comment
Deletes a specific comment from a figma file or branch, provided the authenticated user is the original author of the comment.
Delete a reaction
Deletes a specific emoji reaction from a comment in a figma file; the user must have originally created the reaction.
Delete a webhook
Permanently deletes an existing webhook, identified by its unique `webhook id`; this operation is irreversible.
