Keep document templates visible during spreadsheet changes
When spreadsheet metadata shifts, Notis can list your templates and summarize which ones could relate to the change, based on the context you provide.
Trigger

Why this helps
Broad spreadsheet updates can have downstream effects that are difficult to track across separate tools.
- Make a template inventory available during spreadsheet maintenance.
- Prompt a relevant review from broad metadata changes.
- Reduce time spent locating document assets for an operational check.
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 to list Documint templates and use your supplied context to flag likely review candidates.
- 4Pick the Spreadsheet Metadata Changed trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real metadata change and review the template inventory report.
