Keep experiment working copies distinct
Create a generated asset and a separate Drive copy for an experiment or alternate review path.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Copy file
Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.
Why this helps
Teams edit or annotate the only available copy, making the original harder to preserve.
- Preserve an original alongside a working copy.
- Give an experiment a separate Drive artifact.
- Reduce accidental edits to the source asset.

- 1Connect Bannerbear and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a named automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to generate the creative, upload it, then copy the Drive file for the experiment workflow.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and where reports should go.
- 5Test with one real experiment request.
Questions about this workflow
Does copying change the image itself?
The Copy File action duplicates an existing Drive file. Use Bannerbear instructions to produce a different visual variant.
Can the copy go into an experiment folder?
Specify the desired location in your instruction and use a folder that exists in Drive.
