Create a scheduled Databox dataset for a new reporting cycle
Give each planned reporting cycle a consistent Databox foundation before work begins.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Dataset
Tool to create a new dataset in Databox data source. Use when you need to initialize a dataset with a title, data source ID, and primary keys for unique record identification.
Why this helps
Recurring initiatives often start without the dataset needed to compare results cleanly.
- Prepare reporting before deadlines
- Standardize cycle based datasets
- Reduce last minute setup
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Databox in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that creates the next reporting cycle dataset with the required title and keys.
- 3Choose a recurring schedule trigger and describe the cycle naming rule.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one real scheduled run.
Questions about this workflow
How should the cycle name be generated?
Describe the naming pattern in plain language, such as month and year or sprint number.
Can it avoid duplicates?
Ask Notis to check whether the cycle dataset already exists before creating it.
