Give every video project a clear Drive home

A webhook request can kick off a new project folder, so source assets and finished videos have a place to land.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a folder

Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.

Why this helps

When every project starts differently, assets end up in inconsistent folders and are harder to hand off or revisit.

  • Start projects with a predictable Drive location
  • Reduce setup decisions when beginning a video
  • Make later filing easier

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Captions and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that makes a Drive folder using the project details in the request.
  • 3Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 4Test using one real project name and confirm the folder was created.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create the video itself?

No. This workflow creates a Google Drive folder. Captions video creation is not a listed trigger or Drive action here.

Can the folder be nested?

The Create a folder action supports an optional parent folder id or name. If a supplied parent name is not found, creation fails.
