Put changing sheet metrics in Apilio context
When a total or average moves, see current Apilio numeric variables in the same report before deciding what to do next.
Trigger
Aggregate Metric Changed
Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.
Action
Get Numeric Variables
Tool to fetch all numeric variables. use after authenticating the apilio api.
Why this helps
A changed spreadsheet total often sends you searching elsewhere for the current numbers that help explain it.
- See aggregate changes and Apilio numeric values together
- Make metric review more focused
- Keep a report of what changed and the current context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Apilio once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to summarize the changed aggregate with relevant current Apilio numeric variables, and note when the relationship is unclear.
- 4Pick Aggregate Metric Changed as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real aggregate change and check the report.
Questions about this workflow
Can this workflow update an Apilio number?
No. The available action fetches numeric variables for review and does not update them.
Can Notis explain why the aggregate changed?
It can summarize the change and returned context. A causal explanation requires information present in the sheet or supplied in your prompt.
