Create a Databox dataset from a Typeform intake

Start a clean Databox data store when a new form intake goes live.

Trigger

New Form Response

Triggers when a respondent completes and submits the form.

Action

Create Dataset

Tool to create a new dataset in Databox data source. Use when you need to initialize a dataset with a title, data source ID, and primary keys for unique record identification.

Why this helps

New campaigns often begin without a prepared dataset, so early responses get stranded.

  • Starts tracking from the first submission
  • Creates a consistent record identity
  • Avoids manual dataset setup during launches

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Typeform and Databox in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to create a dataset using the supplied data source ID, title, schema, and primary keys.
  • 3Pick the Typeform New Form Response trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel for the creation result.
  • 5Test with one real response and verify the dataset ID returned by Databox.

Questions about this workflow

Where does the data source ID come from?

Provide an existing Databox data source ID in the automation instruction.

Will every response create another dataset?

The prompt should tell Notis to create the dataset only when the named intake is not initialized.
