Turn a documented subscriber data need into an EmailOctopus field
When someone records a new subscriber data need in a Google comment, Notis can create the matching custom field and keep the request from getting lost.
Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when someone adds a comment to a document, sheet, or presentation.
Action
Create Field
Creates a custom field on a mailing list.
Why this helps
A useful data requirement can be buried in document comments and never make it into the mailing list structure.
- Turn an explicit data requirement into a custom field.
- Reduce manual follow-up from planning discussions to list setup.
- Keep field creation scoped to the list specified in your instruction.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Super and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Tell Notis what wording qualifies as a field request and how to name the field and target list.
- 4Pick Comment Added as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real comment and confirm the field appears on the intended list.
Questions about this workflow
Will every comment create a field?
No. State the wording or conditions that indicate an approved data requirement. Other comments should be reported without creating a field.
Can Notis infer the field type?
Only if the comment or your instruction supplies enough information and the action supports that type. Otherwise, have Notis report what is missing.
Does creating a field populate existing contacts?
No. This action creates a custom field; it does not fill in contact values.
