Why this helps
Small but meaningful data quality fixes can be difficult to gather when release communication is due.
- Bring related improvements together in one update.
- Make data quality work visible to customers.
- Reduce last-minute release note gathering.

- 1Connect ContactOut and Canny to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Ask Notis to create a monthly automation that summarizes confirmed data-quality improvements into a Canny changelog entry.
- 3Choose a monthly cron schedule and a reporting channel.
- 4Review the first entry carefully and set the intended publish timing.
