Give each quarterly review a dedicated folder

Start a recurring review with a predictable place to collect its working documents.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create File or Folder

Create a file or folder, optionally with uploaded content.

Why this helps

Review materials end up scattered when every quarter starts with another round of folder setup.

  • Create a consistent home for each review period.
  • Reduce repetitive folder setup.
  • Make review materials easier to locate later.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Google Drive folder named for the quarterly review and current period, using an existing parent folder only if its id or name is supplied and available.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and check the new folder in Drive.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow create review documents too?

This workflow creates a folder only. A separate instruction and file creation action would be needed to create documents.

What if the parent folder cannot be found?

The folder creation action may fail when a specified parent name is not found. Use a valid parent folder id or name, or omit the parent.
