Set aside a fresh folder for recurring trip research
Give each scheduled round of accommodation research a predictable Drive location.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Ongoing travel research can blur together when every round of options is stored in the same place.
- Separate recurring research rounds into clear locations.
- Make it easier to find material from a particular review period.
- Create a lightweight structure for ongoing planning.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Blue Pillow Hotels & Stays and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and write a name and folder creation prompt.
- 3Choose a recurring schedule and the destination for run reports.
- 4Ask Notis in one instruction to create a dated folder for the ongoing search, using a stable naming pattern.
- 5Test one run and confirm the folder is created in the intended Drive location.
Questions about this workflow
Does this folder include search results?
No. This action creates a folder. Saving results inside requires an additional file creation action.
How do I avoid duplicate folders?
Use a schedule and naming pattern that produces a distinct period label, and review the test run before relying on recurring creation.
