- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Google Drive folder for each scheduled fundraising review using the review label you provide.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real review label and confirm the folder appears in Drive.
Questions about this workflow
Does Blackbaud start this automation?
No Blackbaud trigger events are available in this workflow context, so it runs on a Notis schedule.
Will it find and summarize Blackbaud campaign data?
The scheduled trigger does not provide Blackbaud data. Supply the review label or other details in the automation instruction or request context.
Can the folder be created inside a particular existing folder?
The folder action can use a parent folder when its ID or name is supplied. Provide the intended parent details in the instruction.
