Notis

Give every KPI a shared definition

Make measure names, definitions, and units easier for the team to find and understand.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a File from Text

Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.

Why this helps

Teams can interpret the same measure differently when definitions are scattered or missing.

  • Collects supplied definitions in one document.
  • Flags measures without definitions or units.
  • Makes recurring reviews easier to interpret consistently.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BSC Designer and Google Drive once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a glossary from submitted KPI names, definitions, and units, marking missing definitions clearly.
  • 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and send the glossary source details.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with a small real set of measures.

Questions about this workflow

Does it define measures with missing descriptions?

It should flag missing definitions rather than invent an official meaning.

Can it include units?

Yes, when the units are included in the submitted data.
