Keep optimized Cloudinary previews ready in Drive
Choose the transformations you use for review or sharing and let Notis save the resulting previews in Drive.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Upload File
Uploads a file (max 5mb) to google drive, moving it to a specified folder if a valid folder id is provided, otherwise uploads to root.
Why this helps
Preparing the same optimized preview repeatedly creates avoidable steps before sharing media.
- Store selected transformed previews in a familiar Drive folder.
- Reduce repeated retrieval work for commonly used previews.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudinary and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and name it Optimized preview archive.
- 3Tell Notis which Cloudinary assets and transformations to retrieve and to upload the resulting files to a Drive folder.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real transformation and review the uploaded preview.
Questions about this workflow
Does this transform the original in Drive?
No. It asks Cloudinary to generate the specified optimized image transformation, then uploads the retrieved result to Drive.
What transformations should I specify?
Name the transformations you already use or provide the intended output requirements. Notis should not guess unspecified dimensions or formats.
