Share finished reports with the right client
Send a report into the right hands by applying the intended Drive sharing permission on request.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add file sharing preference
Modifies sharing permissions for an existing google drive file, granting a specified role to a user, group, domain, or 'anyone'.
Why this helps
Client delivery can stall when sharing permissions require a separate manual step after report generation.
- Apply a requested role to the report.
- Reduce delays between generation and delivery.
- Keep the share action tied to the report request.
