Start a project with its own copy of an approved asset
When a project request identifies an existing approved Drive asset, Notis can copy it for the new work.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Copy file
Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.
Why this helps
Teams can accidentally edit or overwrite the shared source when they need a project-specific working file.
- Give a project a separate Drive file to work with.
- Keep the original item available as the source.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudinary and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and name it Project asset copy.
- 3Tell Notis to copy the existing Drive file identified in each request for the named project use.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real source file and confirm the copy is created.
Questions about this workflow
Does the request need a Drive file ID?
The action identifies the source by file ID, so provide that ID or enough context for Notis to find it.
Does this upload a Cloudinary asset?
No. It copies an existing Google Drive file.
