Check Baserow tables when a tracked document changes
When a key document changes, surface the tables that can support the next action.
Trigger
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
Action
List Tables in Database
This tool lists all tables within a specified baserow database. it allows users to retrieve information about all tables in a database by using the get /api/database/{database id}/tables/ endpoint. the expected output is an array of table objects containing details such as id, name, order, database id, type, and first row header.
Why this helps
Important document updates get noticed, but the next operational workspace is hard to find.
- Connect document changes to available tables
- Reduce hunting across Baserow
- Keep recurring processes consistent
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Docs and Baserow in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation instructing Notis to list tables in your chosen Baserow database whenever a matching document is newly created or updated.
- 3Pick Document Search Update as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel and test with one matching document.
Questions about this workflow
Can the automation search every Baserow database?
The action lists tables for a specified database, so provide the database context in your instruction.
What counts as a matching document?

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.
Document Deleted
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.

This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed
