  • Review current permissions on selected Drive files.
  • Make collaborator access easier to inspect periodically.
  • Keep access decisions visible for a human owner.

  • 1Connect Apify and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation for reviewing Apify results file access.
  • 3Tell Notis to list permissions for the Drive files you identify and summarize who has access for review, without changing permissions.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file and verify the listed access.
