Find the contact files that are ready for review

Start a scheduled review with a short list of candidate files instead of hunting through Drive.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

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

Contact files are easy to miss when they are scattered across folders and nobody owns a review queue.

  • Reduce time spent locating candidate files.
  • Create a repeatable starting point for contact review.
  • Keep file discovery separate from any assumed file contents.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Addressfinder and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe the Drive search criteria for candidate contact files.
  • 3Choose a cron trigger and select a report channel.
  • 4Test the schedule against real files and confirm the results identify usable inputs.

Questions about this workflow

Does finding a Drive file validate its contents?

No. This action searches for files. The workflow should not claim to validate file contents unless those contents are provided to Addressfinder.

Can it automatically read any file it finds?

The package uses file search, which returns matching Drive items. Supply accessible contact details if you want Addressfinder to check them.
