- See existing research in one readable report
- Make folder review a recurring routine
- Reduce duplicate research caused by poor visibility

- 3Describe which Drive location or research files to list and that Notis should save a dated inventory in Drive.

- 5Test with one real run and confirm the inventory includes the files you expect.
Questions about this workflow
Why connect browser rendering for a Drive inventory?
The source connection is part of this workflow package. If you want web context included, tell Notis which pages to render and what to add to the inventory.
Can the inventory flag duplicate files?
Notis can analyze returned file details, but reliable duplicate detection depends on the metadata available. Specify the identifying details to compare and review the test output.
