Trigger
Recurring schedule

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
Teams repeat investigation work when earlier bug reviews are hard to find at the moment a similar report appears.
- Surfaces potentially relevant prior reviews.
- Reduces repeated searching across documents.
- Helps triage with existing team knowledge.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bugherd and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for recurring issue review.
- 3Tell Notis to review available Bugherd reports, search Drive for matching prior investigation documents, and report candidate links or identifiers.
- 4Choose a cron schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real report and confirm that search results are candidates, not assumed duplicates.
Questions about this workflow
Does this prove two reports are duplicates?
No. Search can surface candidates, but a person should verify whether the reports describe the same defect.
What makes Drive search useful here?
Relevant prior documents should contain recognizable issue terms, titles, or identifiers that can be searched.
