Audit Your Airtable Base Schema Automatically
Need to verify your base structure or document schema for a migration? Notis retrieves your complete Airtable schema on demand via webhook.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Get Base Schema
Retrieves the detailed schema for a specified airtable base, including its tables, fields, field types, and configurations, using the `baseid`.
Why this helps
You're migrating to a new workspace or need to document your table structure, but manually exporting schema from each base is tedious. You end up with incomplete documentation.
- Quick documentation: schema retrieval in seconds
- Migration-ready: have all structure details before moving data
- Compliance verification: confirm field names, types, and relationships
- Version control: document schema changes over time
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable to Notis.
- 2Identify the base IDs you want to audit.
- 3Tell Notis: 'When I send a webhook request with a base ID, retrieve the complete schema (all tables, fields, field types, and relationships) and return it to me.'
- 4Get your webhook URL from Notis.
- 5Send a test webhook with a base ID to retrieve the schema.
Questions about this workflow
What information does the schema include?
Table names, field names, field types (text, number, select, etc.), field visibility, relationships between tables, and any calculated fields.
Can I get schema for multiple bases at once?
Yes. Send base IDs in the webhook, and Notis retrieves schema for all of them.
Is the schema output compatible with other tools?
Yes. Notis returns structured JSON that you can use for migration tools, documentation generators, or backups.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Whatsapp to Airtable. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Whatsapp triggers
Airtable actions
Message Status Updated
Triggers when a WhatsApp message status changes. IMPORTANT LIMITATION: WhatsApp Cloud API does not provide a native polling endpoint for message status. Status updates are ONLY delivered via webhooks in real-time. This trigger cannot directly poll the WhatsApp API for status updates. This trigger will return empty results as WhatsApp does not support this operation. To track message status updates, you must: 1. Set up a webhook endpoint to receive status notifications from WhatsApp 2. Store the webhook data in your own database 3. Use a different mechanism to query your stored webhook data For more information, see: - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/cloud-api/webhooks
