- Keeps vintage and dataset explicit
- Shortens research turnaround
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Outlook and Census bureau in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Webhook decennial data request.
- 3Describe the webhook payload and instruct Notis to retrieve decennial data for its vintage, dataset, geography, and variables.
- 4Pick an HTTP webhook trigger and choose a report destination.
- 5Test with one real payload from the calling system.
Questions about this workflow
Can the payload include several geographies?
Yes. Specify that the request may contain a list and ask for one result per geography.
What if the dataset is omitted?
Notis should report the missing dataset rather than selecting one arbitrarily.
