Make Drive storage easier to review monthly

Use a recurring reminder to review Drive storage details and save the findings and follow-ups in a dated document.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create a File from Text

Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.

Why this helps

Storage concerns can remain vague until they become urgent because usage details are not gathered in one place.

  • Keep storage review findings together over time.
  • Record follow-ups when the supplied information points to an issue.
  • Make the review part of an existing monthly routine.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Ask Notis to summarize the storage and quota information supplied for each run, note any concerns supported by that information, and save a dated review document.
  • 4Choose a monthly schedule as the trigger and select a report destination.
  • 5Test with current storage details and review the saved document.

Questions about this workflow

Will the schedule retrieve storage data automatically?

A schedule starts the automation, but the workflow needs storage details to be supplied to Notis. The listed actions do not include a dedicated storage-report trigger.

Can Notis recommend files to delete?

It can highlight supplied file details for review, but ask it not to delete files automatically.
