Keep Drive agent documents aligned with updates

Use the change details in an incoming request to update the metadata of the specified Drive file.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Update File (Metadata)

Updates file metadata. uses patch semantics (partial update) as per google drive api v3. use this tool to modify attributes of an existing file like its name, description, or parent folders. note: this action currently supports metadata updates only. file content updates require multipart/related upload and are not yet implemented.

Why this helps

Agent documentation can become hard to identify after configuration or ownership changes.

  • Keep file names and descriptions current.
  • Make agent documents easier to identify.
  • Apply metadata updates from a single request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolna and Google Drive once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which metadata changes to apply.
  • 3Ask Notis to update only the specified Drive file metadata included in the webhook request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real update request and a valid file identifier.

Questions about this workflow
