Turn a new document into an immediate Baserow workspace check.

Trigger

New Document Created

Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.

Action

List Databases

This tool retrieves a list of all databases in a specified workspace. as a fundamental operation, it allows users to discover which databases are available in their baserow workspace. this operation is independent and requires only authentication in order to fetch essential metadata for subsequent operations.

Why this helps

New documents arrive without a clear place to organize their related records.

  • See available databases while context is fresh
  • Reduce manual workspace searching
  • Create a repeatable intake checkpoint

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Baserow in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation and describe that each new document should prompt a Baserow database inventory.
  • 3Pick New Document Created as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real document.
