Get Automation Details
Tool to retrieve details of a specific automation by its ID. Use when you need to fetch configuration, data source settings, and template information for an automation.

Questions about this workflow
Where should I put the automation ID?
Include it in the task title or notes so Notis can identify the requested automation.
