Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Why this helps
Teams rediscover available reports every cycle and overlook useful changes.

Setup

- 2Create an automation that lists reports and summarizes what each is useful for.
- 3Pick a recurring Notis schedule as the trigger.
- 4Choose a report destination and test with one scheduled run.
Questions about this workflow
Can it compare the catalog with a prior review?
Yes, if you provide the prior snapshot or store the comparison context in your instruction.
Can it download report data?
This package uses the List Reports action, so it inventories reports rather than downloading their rows.
