Action
Create Dataset Refresh Job
Tool to schedule a dataset refresh job in DataRobot. Use when you need to automate periodic data updates for a dataset. The schedule must be at least daily (hourly schedules are not supported).
Why this helps
A dataset refresh can become a recurring manual reminder that is easy to miss during a busy week.
- Set up a daily refresh job from the request conversation.
- Reduce repeated manual refresh work.
- Make the dataset and cadence explicit.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and DataRobot to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt to schedule a dataset refresh when a Slack request identifies the dataset and confirms daily cadence.
- 3Select the Slack channel message trigger and a run report channel.
- 4Test with one real request for a dataset that supports refresh.
Questions about this workflow
Can I request an hourly refresh?
No. The DataRobot refresh action supports schedules at least daily; hourly schedules are not supported.
What should the request include?
