Notis

Review your ClickHouse table inventory regularly

See the tables and size details ClickHouse returns in one scheduled report.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

List ClickHouse Tables

List tables in clickhouse databases. returns information about tables including their engine, size, and row count.

Why this helps

Table sprawl makes it harder to find the data you need and notice datasets that may deserve attention.

  • Review table listings without opening a separate analytics console.
  • See available engine, size, and row count metadata.
  • Keep the inventory cadence predictable.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ClickHouse once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and ask Notis to list tables and summarize returned metadata.
  • 3Pick a recurring schedule and select a report destination.
  • 4Set a cadence and timezone for the inventory.
  • 5Test with one real run.

Questions about this workflow

Can it identify unused tables?

Not from table listing metadata alone. A usage history or retention rule must be supplied in an accessible data source.

Can I scope it to one database?

Include the database scope in your instruction if the action supports that parameter in your connection.
