Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Discord and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for work lookup.

- 4Pick the New Discord Message trigger for the channel, choose where run reports go, and test with one real question.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow search every Airtable base?
It can search the relevant connected table when the instruction identifies the table or enough context is available. Specify where the tracked work lives.
What if no matching record exists?
Ask Notis to report that it found no matching record so the team can clarify or create one.
