Trigger
Webhook received

Action
Copy file

Why this helps
Reusing one shared research file can mix project findings and make past work harder to trust.
- Keep the original template intact.
- Give each task a separate working document.
- Reduce setup before a research run.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Browserbase and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe which existing template to copy for a new task.
- 3Choose a webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real task and verify the new copy in Drive.
Questions about this workflow
Does copying a template add research results to it?
No. This action creates a copy. Ask Notis to summarize findings separately if you need a populated report.
What does the workflow need to identify the template?
Provide a reliable file identity or enough context for Notis to locate the intended template.
