Share a study document with a collaborator

Prepare a passage note and grant the person you specify the Drive access role you request.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add file sharing preference

Modifies sharing permissions for an existing google drive file, granting a specified role to a user, group, domain, or 'anyone'.

Why this helps

Sharing the right study document can get delayed when you have to prepare context and update permissions separately.

  • Prepare passage context and share the selected study document in one request.
  • Set the access role you specify for the collaborator.
  • Reduce manual handoffs when inviting someone into a study.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Api bible and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to prepare a scripture context note with Api bible and share the specified existing Drive document with the named collaborator using the requested role.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real document and collaborator whose access should be updated.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a document before sharing it?

The sharing action updates permissions on an existing Drive file. Use a separate document creation workflow first if the file does not exist.

What should I include in the request?

Provide the existing file, collaborator identity, requested role, and the passage or question for the scripture context.
