Notis

Start every Bonsai client project with a clear Drive brief

Send a kickoff request to Notis and get a concise client brief saved in Google Drive, ready to review and share.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a File from Text

Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.

Why this helps

Client details are scattered across onboarding steps, making it easy to miss expectations before work begins.

  • Keep project scope and next steps in one document.
  • Reduce manual copying between Bonsai and Drive.
  • Make kickoff information easier to find later.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bonsai and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to summarize the Bonsai onboarding context into a client brief and create it in Drive.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test the automation with one real Bonsai onboarding example.
