Notis

Request an ACS market snapshot on demand

Trigger a focused local data brief whenever your workflow needs one.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Get ACS 1-Year Estimates

Tool to retrieve 1-year american community survey (acs) estimates for a specified geography. use when you need the most recent annual acs data for a given area.

Why this helps

Ad hoc market research gets delayed when someone must manually repeat the same lookup.

  • Runs from any webhook enabled process
  • Keeps geography and questions explicit
  • Returns a consistent market snapshot

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Census bureau in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation with one instruction describing the ACS snapshot.
  • 3Pick a Notis webhook as the trigger.
  • 4Choose the run report destination and test with one real webhook payload.

Questions about this workflow

What should the webhook payload contain?

Include the geography and any variables or questions required by the instruction.

Can Zendesk still be part of this workflow?

This trigger is Notis native, so supply any Zendesk context in the webhook payload if needed.
