  • Reduce searching across unrelated folders.

Setup

  • 3Describe: for the file identified in this Borneo review request, create a Drive shortcut in the specified case folder and report the result.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file and confirm the shortcut points to the intended item.
