Review your CommCare report catalog on a schedule

Keep track of which reports are available in your CommCare project without logging in just to check the list.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

List Reports

Tool to retrieve available reports configured in a CommCare project. Use when you need to discover what reports exist before downloading report data via the Download Report Data API.

Why this helps

Finding the right configured report can interrupt other work when you have to open CommCare and search for it again.

  • Retrieve the reports configured in a CommCare project on a recurring schedule.
  • Receive run information in a reporting channel you already use.
  • Make report discovery easier without downloading report data.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect CommCare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve and summarize the available reports for the CommCare project.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run and confirm the returned report list is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this download report data?

No. This action retrieves the reports configured in the project. Downloading report data is not part of the listed action.

Can I run this when a Salesforce event happens?

This workflow uses a Notis schedule because its purpose is periodic report discovery rather than responding to a Salesforce record event.
