Start a Databricks app when work is estimated
Bring the right compute online when the work is planned and ready.
Trigger
Task Time Estimate Updated
Triggers when a task's time estimate is set, changed, or cleared. `changes[]` carries `TimeEstimateChange` entries only; `before` and `after` are millisecond strings or `null`.
Action
Start Databricks App
Tool to start the last active deployment of a Databricks app. Use when you need to start a stopped app, which transitions it to the ACTIVE state. The start operation is asynchronous and the app will transition to the ACTIVE state after the operation completes.
Why this helps
Apps remain stopped or are started too early, wasting time and compute.
- Align compute with planned work
- Reduce idle runtime
- Remove manual startup steps
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect ClickUp and Databricks in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Start Planned App.
- 3Tell Notis to start the related stopped Databricks app when the task receives a valid approved estimate.
- 4Pick ClickUp Task Time Estimate Updated as the trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one planned task and stopped app.
Questions about this workflow
Will it start an app when an estimate is cleared?
Tell Notis to act only when an estimate is added or changed to an approved value.
What if the app is already active?
Notis can report the current state without starting it again.
