Recurring schedule

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

Action

Add tag to file or folder

Tags a file or folder; the tag is converted to lowercase.

Why this helps

Research files are difficult to retrieve when they lack consistent organization.

  • Mark relevant files for quicker retrieval.
  • Apply a repeatable tag to recurring research material.
  • Reduce manual organizing after a web check.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Airtop and Dropbox once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, describe the recurring browser topic, Dropbox search, and tag to apply to matching files.
  • 4Choose the schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real run and verify the tag on a relevant file.

Questions about this workflow

Will every Dropbox file get tagged?

Tell Notis to tag only files returned by the relevant search and to report when no matches are found.

Can tags use uppercase letters?

Dropbox converts tags to lowercase, so use a lowercase tag in your instruction.
