Why this helps

A decision may already be recorded in Elasticsearch, but it is easy to miss while revising a matching Doc.

  • Surface potentially relevant prior decisions for review.
  • Spot apparent inconsistencies sooner.
  • Keep recurring document reviews focused.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis which index to query for related decisions and how to summarize possible conflicts.
  • 3Pick the Document Search Update trigger and define the Google Docs search query there.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real matching document update.

Questions about this workflow

Can it determine that a decision is definitely outdated?

It can report related records for review. The available actions do not provide a decision history or update Elasticsearch records.

Where does the Google Docs search query go?

The trigger uses a user-defined search query. Select or enter it when choosing the trigger in Notis.
