Action

Find file

Tool to list or search for files and folders in google drive. use when you need to find specific files based on query criteria or list contents of a drive/folder.

Why this helps

Finding the right proposal, policy, or reference file can take longer than answering the original request.

  • Reduce repeated searching for files mentioned in chat.
  • Bring likely reference documents into a focused review.
  • Keep uncertain matches visible for a person to confirm.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel to create one.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to review recent 2chat requests, search Drive for relevant files, and report likely matches with their names and links when available.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and confirm the matches are relevant before sharing them.

Questions about this workflow

Will it send files to the WhatsApp requester?

This workflow searches Drive and reports likely matches. It does not send a WhatsApp message.

What if there is no clear match?

Ask Notis to say that it found no confident match instead of selecting an unrelated file.
