Notis

Keep new presentation work connected to your Beeminder goals

A new slide can signal progress. Notis checks your active goals and points out relevant connections or missing context, so you can decide what to log.

Trigger

New Slide Added

Fires when a new slide is added to a Google Slides presentation.

Action

Get all goals

Tool to retrieve all goals for a specified user. use when listing a user's active goals.

Why this helps

Presentation work can move a goal forward without making that progress visible in Beeminder.

  • See whether a new slide appears relevant to an active goal.
  • Get a short report while the presentation context is fresh.
  • Avoid claiming progress when the slide does not provide enough evidence.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Slides and Beeminder once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to compare each new slide with active goals and report relevant matches or missing evidence.
  • 4Pick the Google Slides New Slide Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real slide and review the report.

Questions about this workflow

Will this add a datapoint to Beeminder?

No. The allowed Beeminder actions retrieve goals or user information; they do not create datapoints. This workflow reports possible alignment for you to review.

Can it tell whether a slide proves goal progress?

It can compare the slide and active goal information, but it should flag uncertainty when the slide does not establish measurable progress.
