Use developer metadata changes to prompt an Aryn plan
Developer metadata may carry context your workflow depends on. When an entry changes, Notis can prepare a proposed Aryn plan from the question and context in your instruction.
Trigger
Developer Metadata Changed
Triggers when developer metadata entries change (new/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Action
Generate plan
Tool to generate a query plan without executing it. use when you need to review the logical plan before running your query (e.g., "generate a plan for revenue breakdown by region").
Why this helps
A behind-the-scenes metadata update happens, while a related document analysis remains a manual step to remember.
- Turn metadata updates into a planned next step.
- Review Aryn's proposed logic before query execution.
- Keep the intended question in the run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Aryn once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, supply the analysis question and ask Notis to prepare an Aryn plan when developer metadata changes.
- 4Choose the Developer Metadata Changed trigger, then choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real metadata update and review the plan.
Questions about this workflow
What changes does this trigger detect?
It detects developer metadata entries that are newly added, updated, or removed.
Will the event contain enough information for Aryn to build a plan?
The analysis question and context should be supplied in your instruction. Generate plan does not execute the analysis.

Get DocSet Metadata
Tool to retrieve metadata for a specific docset. use when you have the docset id and optionally need usage statistics.
Data Validation Rule Changed
Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Get Document by ID
Tool to retrieve a document by id. use after both docset and document ids are available.
Developer Metadata Changed
Triggers when developer metadata entries change (new/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Get Document Binary
Tool to retrieve the binary content of a document by docset id and document id.
Filtered Range Values Changed
Polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets filtered ranges for value changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect when values matching a data filter change. Emits the matched values when changes are detected.
