Why this helps
Important changes are hard to find when teams have to scan every course and record manually.
- Focus review time on records meeting your criteria
- Use a consistent review instruction each run
- Bring course activity together with existing tracker context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blackboard and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list relevant Airtable records and compare them with Blackboard activity using criteria you supply.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real review and verify the records returned meet your criteria.
Questions about this workflow
Can it compare against historical baselines?
Only if the baseline is available in Blackboard or Airtable, or you provide it in the instruction.
Does this workflow change Airtable records?
No. It lists matching records for review. Use an update action in a separate workflow if you want records changed.
