Find the right Drive references for an AI task
Send a question or topic and have Notis find the Drive materials that can help answer it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Switching between chat and Drive to hunt for context slows down decisions and breaks focus.
- Bring relevant reference files into an AI task.
- Reduce repeated manual searches across Drive.
- Keep a searchable path from request to source material.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to search Drive for files relevant to the incoming question and use the returned results for the requested AI task.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real question whose reference files you can verify.
Questions about this workflow
Can the AI use the full contents of found documents?
Only if those contents are made available to the workflow. Finding a file may return file information without its full text.
How does the workflow begin?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it and provides the question or topic.
Can Notis search any arbitrary folder?
Describe the location or criteria in the prompt. Search results depend on the connected Drive account and the details provided.
