- Reduce the effort of setting up a folder by hand.

- 2Create an automation named Removal data review folder.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Google Drive folder named for the current review period for collecting Cdr platform removal data and related notes.
- 4Choose notis_cron and set the recurring schedule, then select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and confirm the folder name and location.
Questions about this workflow
Does the folder contain Cdr platform data automatically?
This workflow creates a folder. Add a separate instruction or automation if you need to retrieve or save specific removal data, and ensure that data is available to Notis.
Can I choose how often it runs?
Yes. Select a recurring schedule when configuring the notis_cron trigger.
What if the folder already exists?
The action description does not guarantee duplicate detection. Test the naming behavior and choose a schedule and naming approach that suit your Drive organization.
