Give beach search notes a home in Drive

Create one place for beach planning documents so they are easier to find later.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create File or Folder

Creates a new file or folder with metadata. use to create empty files or folders, or files with content by providing it in the request body (though this action primarily focuses on metadata creation).

Why this helps

Beach research ends up scattered across documents and folders, making follow-up harder.

  • Keep beach research in a dedicated location
  • Make related planning documents easier to find
  • Start a consistent home for future lookups

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beach Day API and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Drive folder named for your beach planning research when you request it.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a folder automatically on a schedule?

No. The webhook request starts the automation. You can request folder creation when you need it.

Can the folder be created inside another folder?

The action supports an optional parent folder by id or name. The parent needs to exist for the creation to succeed.
