Look up Baserow tables when a Google Sheets schema changes
Connect structural changes in a Sheets table to a current list of tables in the Baserow database you name.
Trigger
Table Schema Changed
Polling trigger that detects when a table's schema changes in Google Sheets. Monitors columns added/removed/renamed and inferred type/format changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to compare schemas between polls.
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
A schema change can require coordination, and searching Baserow for relevant tables adds friction to follow-up.
- React to added, removed, or renamed columns and inferred type changes.
- Retrieve tables from the Baserow database you specify.
- Keep structural change context with the lookup results.
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.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to list tables in the named Baserow database when the Sheets schema changes.
- 4Pick the Table Schema Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real schema change.

Will this copy the changed schema to Baserow?
No. The available Baserow action lists tables; it does not edit them.
What schema changes can start the workflow?
The event detects column additions, removals, renames, and inferred type or format changes.

Notis builds workflows that link Google Sheets to Baserow. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Sheets triggers
Baserow actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
List Databases
This tool retrieves a list of all databases in a specified workspace. as a fundamental operation, it allows users to discover which databases are available in their baserow workspace. this operation is independent and requires only authentication in order to fetch essential metadata for subsequent operations.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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.
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.
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
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.
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.
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.
