Find employee documents without a manual Drive search

Search for the HR files you need and get a concise list of matches that need a closer look.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Find file

Tool to list or search for files and folders in google drive. use when you need to find specific files based on query criteria or list contents of a drive/folder.

Why this helps

Searching Drive by hand for each employee file breaks focus and makes it easy to overlook a matching document.

  • Search for a batch of employee documents in one run.
  • Surface ambiguous matches for human review.
  • Reduce context switching during HR document requests.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named HR Document Finder.
  • 3Tell Notis to search Drive for the supplied employee document requests and return likely matches with ambiguous or missing results called out.
  • 4Select a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document request and verify the returned matches.

Questions about this workflow

Can the search read all Breathe HR employee records?

This workflow uses a supplied list of document requests. There are no Breathe HR trigger events listed for automatic roster changes.

Will it open or change the matching files?

No. It searches Drive and reports matches. It does not modify files.
