Give managers access to the review file they need

Make a review handoff smoother by granting the specified manager access to the correct Drive file.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add file sharing preference

Modifies sharing permissions for an existing google drive file, granting a specified role to a user, group, domain, or 'anyone'.

Why this helps

Review work stalls when the document exists but the manager cannot open it.

  • Grant a specified manager the requested access role.
  • Keep access steps tied to the review handoff.
  • Reduce manual permission handling for review files.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Manager Review Access.
  • 3Tell Notis to grant the specified manager or group the requested role on the provided Drive file ID.
  • 4Select the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real review file and confirm the manager can access it.

Questions about this workflow

What information must the request provide?

Provide the Drive file ID, the manager or group, and the role to grant.
