- Detects approved connector requests
- Preserves source and purpose context
- Reduces manual handoff from inbox to BigML
Setup

- 1Connect Outlook and BigML in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Email to BigML Data Connector.
- 3Tell Notis to create an external connector only when the message contains an approved data source and sufficient connection details, and to report missing details otherwise.
- 4Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger and choose where reports go.
- 5Test it with one approved connector email.
