Look up Baserow tables when spreadsheet values change

Keep table discovery close to the spreadsheet update that prompted it with an automated Baserow lookup.

Trigger

Cell Range Values Changed

Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.

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

After a key range changes, locating the corresponding tables in Baserow can interrupt the next task.

  • Retrieve tables from a chosen Baserow database when a range changes.
  • Reduce manual browsing after spreadsheet updates.
  • Use a report to review the returned table details.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Baserow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, name the Baserow database and ask Notis to list its tables when the range changes.
  • 4Pick the Cell Range Values Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test by changing one real value in the range.

Questions about this workflow

Must I provide a Baserow database?

Yes. The table-list action is scoped to a specified database.

Can the workflow determine what changed in the range?

The trigger detects changed values. You can ask Notis to use the event data in its report, subject to what the trigger provides.
