Know When New Views Are Created
New Airtable view just created? Email alert sent. No more surprises on shared bases.
Trigger
View Created
Triggers when a new view is created in an Airtable base.
Action
Send Email
Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.
Why this helps
On shared Airtables, new views can indicate workflow changes or experiments; missing these leads to fragmented processes.
- Stay aware of new workflows on shared bases
- Catch experimental or redundant views early
- Maintain consistency across your Airtable
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtable and Gmail to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new view is created in Airtable, send me an email.'
- 3Specify which base(s) to monitor (or all of them).
- 4Notis includes the view name and creator in the email.
- 5Test by creating a new view and verify the alert arrives.
