Capture release details while they are fresh

Use a webhook request to turn supplied changes into a readable release note draft in Drive.

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

Release context can be hard to reconstruct after the work has shipped.

  • Preserve supplied change details promptly.
  • Give a teammate a draft to review and refine.
  • Keep release context searchable in Drive.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Backendless and Google Drive once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Release Note Draft.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Drive release note draft from each request, using only supplied changes and impact details.
  • 4Select a webhook trigger and choose where reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real release request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this publish release notes?

No. It creates a Drive document for review.
