Notis

Review subscriber context alongside document updates

When an existing Google Doc changes, have Notis retrieve contacts from the list you are working with.

Trigger

Document Updated

Triggers when an existing document is updated.

Action

List Contacts

Retrieves a paginated set of contacts from a mailing list.

Why this helps

Subscriber details may be hard to check in the moment a planning or review document changes.

  • Bring list contacts into a document update review
  • Filter returned contacts by tag or status when supported
  • Keep a review cue attached to a specific document

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, tell Notis which list contacts to retrieve and what review summary would help with the document update.
  • 4Pick Document Updated as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document update and review the report.

Questions about this workflow

Can the contact retrieval be filtered?

List Contacts supports optional filtering by tag, status, and date ranges. State any desired filters in your instruction.
