Review document templates when source columns change
When columns are added, removed, renamed, or retyped, Notis can retrieve a related Documint template so you can assess downstream impact.
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
Get Template
Tool to retrieve a single template by its id. use when you need to fetch details of a specific template before generating documents.
Why this helps
A changed data structure can affect the fields people expect in documents, but the impact may be missed during spreadsheet maintenance.
- Surface a related template when the underlying table structure changes.
- Make schema changes easier to assess for document impacts.
- Keep template review in the same workflow as spreadsheet upkeep.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Documint once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis which template to fetch when the table schema changes and what context to include in the report.
- 4Pick the Table Schema Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real schema change and review the template details.
