- 3Tell Notis to identify an explicitly stated base and quote currency code in the email and retrieve the daily FX time series.

- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real request email.
Questions about this workflow
What if the email only says a currency name?
Ask the sender to clarify or provide currency codes in your instruction. Notis should not guess an ambiguous currency pair.
Is this a live exchange rate quote?
The action returns a daily time series with open, high, low, and close data, so it is not an intraday live quote.
