Give each parsed document type a place in Drive
When a document category arrives in a webhook, have Notis create a matching Drive folder for filing.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create a folder
Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.
Why this helps
New document categories can leave you unsure where to file the next parsed item or cause a cluttered catch-all folder.
- Set up filing destinations as categories appear
- Keep document types separated
- Avoid manually creating folders during intake
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airparser and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or from any Notis channel.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Google Drive folder named for the parsed document category, and to use a specified parent folder if you have one.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real parsed document category.
Questions about this workflow
Does this move the original document into the folder?
No. This workflow creates a folder. Moving an existing Drive file requires a separate action and a valid file id.
What if the parent folder name cannot be found?
The folder creation action can fail when a supplied parent folder name is not found. Use a known existing parent folder.
