Keep Basecamp decisions easy to find in Google Drive

Capture the decision, owner, and next step in a Drive document while the Basecamp context is fresh.

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

Important decisions get buried in Basecamp message threads, leaving people to search or ask again.

  • Create a durable record of decisions and next steps.
  • Make project context easier to find outside a long thread.
  • Reduce repeated questions about what the team agreed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Basecamp and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to turn each submitted Basecamp decision or meeting summary into a titled Drive document with owners and next steps.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Basecamp decision summary.

Questions about this workflow

Does this start automatically from a Basecamp event?

Basecamp triggers are not available in this workflow package. A webhook starts the automation when a request containing the decision summary is sent to Notis.

Can it record owners and next steps?

Yes. Include those details in the submitted summary or ask Notis to extract them when they are present. Missing information should be left out rather than guessed.
