Give Buildkite handoffs a home in Drive

Start a clean handoff folder when build context needs a place to collect follow-up documents.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create File or Folder

Creates a new file or folder with metadata. use to create empty files or folders, or files with content by providing it in the request body (though this action primarily focuses on metadata creation).

Why this helps

Build follow-up files end up scattered when nobody creates a shared place to collect them.

  • Create a consistent place for handoff materials.
  • Reduce the friction of organizing follow-up documents.
  • Keep the folder name tied to supplied build context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Buildkite and Google Drive once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Ask Notis in one instruction to create a Drive folder using the build reference and handoff details received.
  • 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with a real request and verify the folder name and parent location are appropriate.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow create a folder automatically from a Buildkite event?

No Buildkite trigger event is listed. The folder is created when a caller sends a request to the Notis webhook.

Can I specify where the folder belongs?

Include the desired parent folder details in the request. The Drive action requires a valid parent when one is provided.
