Review Your Technology Tracker Structure
Keep recurring research grounded in the spreadsheet you intend to use by retrieving its metadata before each review.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get spreadsheet info
Retrieves comprehensive metadata for a google spreadsheet using its id, excluding cell data.
Why this helps
A tracker can change over time, leaving scheduled research instructions pointed at assumptions that no longer fit.
- Retrieve spreadsheet metadata before recurring analysis.
- Keep automation instructions aligned with the chosen spreadsheet.
- Make tracker details available during review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BuiltWith and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the named spreadsheet's metadata and use it to guide the scheduled BuiltWith review.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real spreadsheet and inspect the metadata report.
Questions about this workflow
Does metadata retrieval include cell data?
No. Get spreadsheet info returns comprehensive metadata but excludes cell data.
Can this confirm a worksheet's cell contents?
No. Use a supported data retrieval action when cell values are needed.
What does the schedule provide?
It starts the automation on a recurring basis. The spreadsheet identifier still needs to be available in the instruction or supplied context.
