Why this helps
Starting client work means repeating the small setup task of creating a folder and naming it consistently.
- Creates a consistent folder for client work
- Uses client details already stored in Baserow
- Cuts a repetitive setup step
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Baserow and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis how to identify the client in Baserow and what folder name to create.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real client record and a webhook request.

Describe the intended parent folder in your instruction. The parent must be identifiable and available in Drive for the folder action to succeed.
Does this create a complete client workspace?
