Why this helps
Search terminology changes are missed when glossary ownership or access changes.

- Capture terminology changes promptly
- Maintain an audit trail
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OneDrive and Algolia in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for glossary permission changes.
- 3Tell Notis to review the affected glossary, identify the approved synonym change, and save only that synonym in Algolia.
- 4Choose Sharing Permission Added or Removed as the trigger.
- 5Pick a report channel and test with one glossary permission event.
Questions about this workflow
Will every permission change create a synonym?
No. The instruction should require an actual approved glossary change before saving anything.
Can it remove old synonyms too?
Use a separate reviewed workflow with Delete Synonym when an obsolete synonym must be removed.
