Add a supplied asset to Drive when a Coda doc starts

Trigger
New Coda Document Trigger
Triggers when a new Coda document is created.
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
A project can start before its supporting assets are saved where collaborators expect to find them.
- Place a supplied asset in Drive at project start.
- Reduce the chance that kickoff material stays in a chat or local folder.
- Keep project resources together.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Coda and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to upload the specified available asset to the Drive folder associated with the new Coda document.
- 4Pick the New Coda Document trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real document and a small asset.
Questions about this workflow
Can this upload any file from my computer?
Notis needs access to the asset through the request or connected context. Name the available file or source clearly.
What is the upload size limit?
The listed Google Drive upload action supports files up to 5 MB.
