Create a Drive working copy when Bubble approves

Give approved Bubble items a fresh copy of the right Drive template.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Copy file

Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.

Why this helps

Starting approved work from a template by hand adds repetitive steps and risks editing the original.

  • Preserves the original template
  • Speeds up the handoff into execution
  • Creates a separate working document

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bubble and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to copy the specified Drive template only when an incoming Bubble item is marked approved.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real approved item and check the source template remains unchanged.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis identify the template?

Provide the template's Google Drive file ID in the webhook request or in the automation instruction.

Can this run only for approved items?

Yes, when the webhook payload includes a reliable approval status and the instruction tells Notis to act only on approved items.
