Trigger

Coda Document Deleted Trigger

Triggers when a Coda document is deleted.

Action

Delete Folder

Tool to delete an empty asset folder. use when the folder is confirmed empty and you need to remove it.

Why this helps

Retired projects leave empty folders that make active work harder to scan.

  • Keeps folder navigation tidy
  • Prevents stale project shells
  • Adds a clear deletion check

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Coda and Cloudinary in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that locates the related folder, confirms it is empty, and deletes it.
  • 3Pick the Coda Document Deleted trigger and select the report destination.
  • 4Test with one empty project folder.

Questions about this workflow

What if the folder still contains assets?

The automation should report that it is not empty and leave it unchanged.

Can nested folders be removed too?

Only folders confirmed empty should be targeted; describe the exact scope in your instruction.
