Give each Beamer launch a home in Drive

A launch webhook can prompt Notis to create a Drive folder named from the Beamer release, ready for supporting materials.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a folder

Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.

Why this helps

Launch assets and notes are harder to gather when every release starts without a consistent Drive home.

  • Create a clear place for launch materials
  • Use release details for folder names when available
  • Reduce setup work at launch time

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beamer and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the release name from Beamer and create a matching Drive folder.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real release webhook request.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis create the folder inside an existing folder?

Yes. Include the existing parent folder name or ID in the instruction. The action may fail if a supplied parent name cannot be found.

What if the release has no clear name?

Tell Notis how to name the folder when Beamer does not provide a suitable release title.
