Why this helps
A resilience analysis can stall while the requester gathers dataset details and the analyst starts the lookup from scratch.
- Retrieve resilience estimates for specified variables and geography.
- Keep the request and returned summary together in the run report.
- Identify missing year, variable, or geography inputs before interpreting results.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve Community Resilience Estimates for the request's stated year, variables, and geography, then summarize the results and flag missing inputs.
- 4Pick a webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real request that supplies a year, variables, and geography.
