Give the right reviewer access to a Drive file

Include a reviewer and file reference in the request, then let Notis grant the specified sharing role.

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

Manual permission updates add friction to media reviews and can delay feedback.

  • Grant access as part of a review handoff.
  • Use the role and recipient supplied for the request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudinary and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and name it Review file sharing.
  • 3Tell Notis to grant the requested role on the referenced existing Drive file to the specified reviewer.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real request and verify the intended file permission.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a new Drive file?

No. It modifies sharing permissions for an existing file. The request needs to identify that file and recipient.

Can it share with anyone?

The Drive action supports a user, group, domain, or anyone. Specify the intended access carefully in the request.
