Keep strategy alerts and review notes together

When a strategy event comes in, preserve the alert and the context you provide in a document that is easy to find later.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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

A strategy alert may be easy to act on and just as easy to forget when its reasoning and outcome are scattered.

  • Create a consistent review trail for strategy events.
  • Keep supplied context with each alert.
  • Find past decisions through Drive search.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Alpaca and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation or describe the outcome to Notis.
  • 3Tell Notis to save each strategy webhook and supplied review notes in a dated document.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose a report destination.
  • 5Test with one real strategy request and check the saved document.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis infer a strategy outcome from the alert?

It can summarize information included in the request. Any outcome or performance history not in the request must be supplied separately.

Where will the notes be saved?

Describe the intended Drive location in your instruction. The folder must exist if the action requires a specific folder.
