Review a BigML connector when spreadsheet metadata changes

When a spreadsheet's metadata changes, have Notis retrieve the BigML connector details referenced by your review process.

Trigger

Spreadsheet Metadata Changed

Polling trigger that detects when a Google Spreadsheet's metadata changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect any changes in spreadsheet properties, sheets, named ranges, developer metadata, data sources, etc.

Action

Get External Connector

Tool to retrieve details of an external connector. use after creating or listing external connectors to inspect its state.

Why this helps

Metadata changes can signal that a spreadsheet-based data process needs attention, while connector details live elsewhere.

  • Connect metadata changes with a targeted connector lookup.
  • Bring connector details to the report channel for review.
  • Identify missing connector references for follow-up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and BigML once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the BigML external connector identified by your supplied reference when spreadsheet metadata changes and report the result.
  • 4Choose Spreadsheet Metadata Changed as the trigger, select a report channel, and test with one real example that provides a connector reference.

Questions about this workflow

Does the metadata trigger provide a BigML connector ID?

Not necessarily. Supply or make available a connector reference that Notis can use; the trigger detects spreadsheet metadata changes.

Can this create or modify a connector?

No. This workflow retrieves connector details using the listed Get External Connector action.
