Give each buying project a clear home
Start a purchase research request and create a dedicated Drive folder to hold the work that follows.
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
Buying research gets scattered when there is no obvious home for documents and follow-up.
- Creates a consistent place for project materials
- Makes the purchase request easier to identify later
- Reduces setup friction for a new research task
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bestbuy and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Buying Project Folder.
- 3Tell Notis to use each webhook request's product or project name to create a clearly named Drive folder for the research.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project name and confirm the folder appears.
Questions about this workflow
Does creating the folder also put research documents inside it?
No. This workflow creates the folder. Saving a document into it requires a separate Drive action and a valid folder reference.
What if a folder with that name already exists?
The create folder action may fail if the intended parent or name cannot be resolved as described by the action. Check Drive before reusing a name.
