Share the right job document with the right person

When a request includes job context and a document, have Notis grant the specified access in Drive.

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

Finding a document and granting the right person access can interrupt work and delay coordination.

  • Reduce manual steps when sharing job documents
  • Apply the requested role to a specified contact
  • Keep job context with the sharing request

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ascora and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction how to update sharing on the specified existing Drive file using the requested contact and role.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file and contact example sent to the webhook.

Questions about this workflow

Does this find a file automatically?

Can it grant access to anyone?
