Notis

Create a DataRobot custom job from an email

Describe the task in your inbox and let Notis register the custom job.

Trigger

New Outlook Message

Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.

Action

Create Custom Job

Tool to create a new DataRobot custom job. Use when you need to define a custom execution task that runs arbitrary Python code in DataRobot's managed environment. Only the 'name' field is required; DataRobot applies sensible defaults for other fields.

Why this helps

Small automation requests become sticky inbox threads instead of executable DataRobot jobs.

  • Registers repeatable work from a plain-language request
  • Keeps the original task context
  • Reduces setup overhead for small jobs

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Outlook and Datarobot in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that creates a custom job when a message provides a clear job name and task description.
  • 3Pick New Outlook Message as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real request.
  • 5Send an email describing the custom job to register.

Questions about this workflow

What is the minimum requirement?

DataRobot requires a job name; include a clear name and describe the intended task.
