Catch changed files that may need another conversion
Bring relevant Drive changes into a recurring review so updated sources do not slip through.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Changes
Tool to list the changes for a user or shared drive. use when you need to track modifications to files and folders, such as creations, deletions, or permission changes. this action requires a `pagetoken` which can be initially obtained using the `get changes start page token` action or from a previous `list changes` response.
Why this helps
A file can change after it was converted, leaving teams unaware that its output may be stale.
- Surface relevant file changes during a regular review.
- Reduce stale converted outputs.
- Keep follow-up decisions in one report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CloudConvert and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: list Drive changes using a valid page token, identify relevant file updates, and handle needed CloudConvert conversions.
- 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with a valid token and a change you expect to appear.
Questions about this workflow
Where does the page token come from?
Get it initially with the Drive changes start page token action or reuse one from a previous list changes result.
Can a schedule generate the token and list changes?
The automation needs a valid page token for list changes. Define how it is supplied or retained between runs.
Will every change trigger a conversion?
No. Define which changed files need conversion and how to handle unrelated changes.
