Pair a planning document change with a list inventory

When a document gains or loses structural elements, have Notis bring your EmailOctopus list inventory into the run report.

Trigger

Document Structure Changed

Triggers when a document’s structure changes, such as its tables or headers.

Action

Get All Lists

Retrieve all mailing lists in the account.

Why this helps

Campaign plans and mailing list choices can drift apart while founders move between separate tools.

  • Retrieve current lists as a planning review cue
  • Reduce context switching between planning and mailing tools
  • Use a structural change to start the review

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the available EmailOctopus lists and summarize them for the document review.
  • 4Pick Document Structure Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real structural edit to the specific planning document.

What document changes does this trigger monitor?

It monitors a specific document for changes such as headers, footers, tables, or inline image counts.
