Get CircleCI release reports to the right reviewers
When a review is requested, give the named reviewer access to the relevant Drive report without a permissions scavenger hunt.
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
Release reviews stall when the report exists but the intended reviewer cannot access it.
- Reduce access delays during release review
- Grant access to the specified reviewer
- Keep review handoff tied to the report
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CircleCI and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or ask Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome in one instruction: grant the specified reviewer the requested role on the identified Drive release report from the webhook details.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real review request and confirm the intended file and reviewer.
Questions about this workflow
Can it choose who receives access?
The webhook must identify the reviewer and the file, and the instruction should specify the role to grant.
Can it share with anyone?
The action supports several permission types, including anyone. Use only the access level requested for the release report.
