Share a Google Drive project brief with the right collaborators
When a brief is ready, grant the intended collaborators access without hunting through Drive sharing controls.
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
Sharing the finished brief with every intended collaborator can become a separate manual task after project work is done.
- Reduce manual access setup after a brief is ready.
- Apply the requested role to the specified collaborator.
- Keep sharing tied to an explicit brief and recipient.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Basecamp and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation via Automations, then New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to grant the specified Google Drive role on the existing brief to the named collaborator when a sharing request is submitted.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real brief and an intended recipient.
Questions about this workflow
Can this create the brief too?
This workflow grants sharing access to an existing file. Create or identify the brief separately before submitting the request.
Which access role does it grant?
The submitted request should specify the intended Google Drive role and recipient. Review the request carefully before running it.
