- Keep reference material near the documentation it supports.
- Avoid duplicating files just to make them visible in another location.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, describe how Notis should identify a relevant existing Drive item and create a shortcut for each new child page.
- 4Choose the New Child Page Created trigger, select a report channel, and test with a real page and file.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a copy of the Drive file?
No. The selected action creates a shortcut to an existing file or folder.
What if Notis cannot identify a matching file?
Describe a reliable matching clue in your instruction, such as a title or shared project name. If no match can be established, the automation may need a human decision.
