Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Test Connection

Tool to test the connection to the anonyflow api. use when verifying that the anonyflow service is reachable and operational before performing anonymization tasks. example: `testconnection().execute(testconnectionrequest())`

Why this helps

Connection issues can surface only when a time-sensitive privacy workflow is already underway.

  • Creates a recurring signal without manual checks.
  • Uses the dedicated Anonyflow connection test action.
  • Sends run reports to a chosen channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Anonyflow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a Notis automation and ask it to test the Anonyflow connection.
  • 3Choose a notis_cron schedule for the recurring check.
  • 4Select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run and confirm the report shows the connection result.

Questions about this workflow

Does a successful connection check anonymize data?

No. Test Connection checks whether the Anonyflow API is reachable and operational.

Can this fix a broken connection?

No. It reports the test result; it does not repair credentials or service availability.
