Review related Drive permissions after Confluence access changes

A change to Confluence restrictions can prompt a focused review of permissions on the related Drive file.

Trigger

Content Restrictions Changed

Triggers when view or edit restrictions change on a Confluence page or blog post. Detects user/group restrictions being added, removed, or modified.

Action

List Permissions

Tool to list a file's permissions. use when you need to retrieve all permissions associated with a specific file or shared drive.

Why this helps

Access rules can drift between a wiki page and its supporting file, leaving owners uncertain who can see what.

  • Prompt a timely review when Confluence access changes.
  • Give a file owner visibility into current Drive permissions.
  • Reduce the need to remember a separate manual review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Confluence and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Ask Notis to identify the related Drive file and list its current permissions when Confluence restrictions change, then report the results for review.
  • 4Choose the Content Restrictions Changed trigger, select a report channel, and test with a real restricted page and related file.

Questions about this workflow

Will this automatically change Drive permissions?

No. This workflow lists permissions for review. A person can decide whether a change is appropriate.

Can it find the related file by itself?

Only if the available event data and your instruction provide a reliable way to identify it. Supply a shared identifier or matching rule when needed.
