- Connects active project references with recovery work
- Reduces manual recovery steps
- Restores files when a clear rule is supplied
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 review active Bubble file references and restore a matching trashed Drive file only when the supplied recovery rule says it is eligible.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one known trashed file reference and verify it is restored.
Questions about this workflow
Can it restore a file based on its name alone?
A stable file ID is more reliable. If only a name is available, the instruction should report ambiguous matches instead of choosing automatically.
What happens when no recovery rule is supplied?
The workflow should report the candidate for review and not restore it automatically.
