- Reduce repeat searches during certificate follow-up.
- Keep the original file in its current location.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for certificate shortcuts.
- 3Tell Notis which webhook should prompt a shortcut and provide the existing file and destination details it needs.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real event and an existing Drive file.
