Ways Notis can move work from Coda to Desktime
Turn a new Coda doc into a DeskTime project
Create a DeskTime project whenever a new Coda document appears, so work tracking starts with the project itself.
Refresh a DeskTime project overview after a new Coda doc
When a new Coda document is created, retrieve the current DeskTime project list so you can spot available tracking spaces before assigning work.
Create a DeskTime project from a new Coda page
Create a DeskTime project when a new Coda page signals a new initiative or workstream.
Start DeskTime tracking for a new Coda workstream
When a new Coda page represents active work, start a DeskTime project task so the first work session is captured.
Review DeskTime project and app activity after a Coda update
When a specific Coda page changes, retrieve the related DeskTime project and app activity for a focused progress check.
Check employee project time after a Coda status update
Retrieve employee project data when a specific Coda page is updated, helping you compare planning status with tracked time.
Pull active DeskTime projects for a changed Coda plan
Retrieve the DeskTime projects overview after a specific Coda page update to confirm the tracking structure still fits the plan.
Review DeskTime projects after a Coda document is deleted
When a Coda document is deleted, retrieve the DeskTime project list so you can identify tracking projects that may need archival decisions.
Stop a DeskTime task when a Coda document is deleted
Stop the specified DeskTime project task when its source Coda document is deleted, so removed work does not keep running.

Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
