Why this helps

  • Keeps reviewer access aligned with the current request.
  • Avoids navigating Drive permission settings manually.
  • Applies a specific change to an existing permission.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Better Proposals and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for reviewer access changes.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify the proposal file and existing reviewer permission, then apply the explicitly requested role change.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file and confirm the intended permission changed.

Questions about this workflow
