Triggers when a new channel is subscribed.
Action

Why this helps
Subscriptions made during a busy day rarely come with enough context to remember why you followed the channel.
- Capture the subscription while the signal is fresh
- Add your own reason and evaluation in Airtable
- Build a consistent channel research habit
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect YouTube and Airtable once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to create a creator research record for each newly subscribed channel using available channel details.
- 4Choose New YouTube Channel Subscription as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real subscription and add a note about why you followed the channel.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis determine if a channel is a competitor?
It can summarize available information, but you should give it your criteria and review the result.
Can I add the reason I subscribed?
Include a field for your rationale in the record, then add that context in Airtable if it was not part of the event.
