Questions about this workflow
Does this inspect report contents?
The listing returns files and folders. Ask Notis to summarize the available listing details, or request a separate content retrieval step in your instruction.
Can the inventory cover one folder?
Yes. Name the folder clearly so Notis can identify it.
