Notis

Keep vehicle history details refreshed

Schedule repeat history lookups and bring the returned details back to Airtable.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Update multiple records

Updates multiple existing records in a specified airtable table; these updates are not performed atomically.

Why this helps

History details can become outdated when checks happen only during initial intake.

  • Revisit stored vehicles without manually opening each record.
  • Keep returned history information in the shared record.
  • Use a repeatable process for ongoing review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect CarsXE and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis for history refresh.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to read selected Airtable vehicles, request CarsXE history details, and update the matching records with returned information.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real vehicle record and inspect its updated details.

Questions about this workflow

Will every history detail be available?

The update can include only the history information CarsXE returns for the lookup.

How are records matched?

Specify a reliable identifier, such as the VIN stored in the Airtable record, in the instruction.
