- Spend less time searching through folders manually.

- 3Tell Notis to search Drive for supporting files related to available Beeminder goals and summarize the most relevant matches.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and adjust the search instruction if needed.
Questions about this workflow
Can it search using Beeminder goal names?
It can use goal details available to the connected service or supplied in the instruction. Provide distinctive terms if names alone are ambiguous.
Does the schedule guarantee current goal data?
The schedule starts the automation, but available goal information depends on what the connected Beeminder integration can provide at run time.
