Find the relevant notes before checking Apilio
Ask Notis to locate relevant Drive documentation and use the available information to add context to your requested Apilio check.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Find file
Tool to list or search for files and folders in google drive. use when you need to find specific files based on query criteria or list contents of a drive/folder.
Why this helps
A status check can lack useful context when the runbook or earlier notes are hard to locate.
- Bring relevant existing documentation into a check
- Reduce manual searching across Drive
- Keep the requested state check tied to its context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Apilio and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for contextual Apilio checks.
- 3Tell Notis to search Drive for the specified Apilio runbook or notes, check the requested Apilio item, and summarize the available context and result.
- 4Pick the notis_webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with a known Drive note and a real Apilio check.
Questions about this workflow
Does this edit the existing Drive document?
No. This workflow searches for relevant files and summarizes available information in the run.
What if no matching document is found?
The result should report that no relevant note was found rather than inventing context.
