Get a Baserow table list on request

Need a table directory while working elsewhere? A webhook can prompt Notis to retrieve the tables in your chosen Baserow database.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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

Interrupting a task to find a table name adds friction and makes quick tracking decisions harder.

  • Makes a database's table names available on demand
  • Cuts down on context switching during other work
  • Keeps the lookup result in your chosen report channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Baserow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list tables in a specified Baserow database when the webhook is called.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real webhook request and review the returned tables.

Questions about this workflow

Can I use one webhook for any database?

The action requires a specified database. Include the database to inspect in the automation instruction.

Does this modify table data?

No. It lists tables in the selected database.

TriggerPolling

File Shared (Permissions Added)

Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
