Why this helps
Approved research waits in a queue because someone must remember to start the collection.
- Removes a manual launch step
- Runs only after the approval response arrives
- Creates a clear handoff from intake to execution

Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which collection to start?
Include the collection ID in the form response or provide a stable lookup instruction in the automation prompt.
Can this start a collection that is already running?
The action is for queued collection processing, so use it when the target collection is ready to start.
