Notis

Find updated references when a task changes

A changed task can mean changed context. Let Notis look for relevant records again.

Trigger

Task Details Changed

The details of a specific task change.

Action

Query Index

Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.

Why this helps

Small edits can change what a task means, but the supporting documents may remain out of sight.

  • Run a search after any monitored task detail change.
  • Use the task's current details to guide the lookup.
  • Bring relevant indexed documents into the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Tasks and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to search the chosen index for records related to the monitored task's current details.
  • 4Pick Task Details Changed for the task you want monitored and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test by changing one real task detail and inspect the results.
