Keep a Gmail record of a deleted Ark task

Capture the returned deletion status in a concise email for your own records.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Send Email

Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.

Why this helps

A deleted task may no longer be easy to find when you need to recall what happened.

  • Creates an email record based on returned task information.
  • Keeps the details searchable in Gmail.
  • Avoids claiming deletion succeeded if the returned status does not confirm it.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BytePlus Ark and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that checks a supplied task and emails a brief record of the returned deletion status.
  • 3Pick the webhook trigger and provide the task identifier in the request.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real deletion outcome.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow delete the task?

No. It only checks available task information and emails a record.

What if the deleted task cannot be retrieved?

The email should report that the status could not be confirmed rather than infer success.
