Notis

Auto-list files for all upcoming calendar events

Your calendar and Drive are disconnected. Notis automatically syncs them by listing all Drive files that relate to your upcoming events, giving you one consolidated view.

Trigger

Calendar Event Sync

Polling trigger that returns full event data including details, attendees, and metadata. For real-time notifications with basic info, use Calendar Event Changes (webhook).

Action

List Files and Folders

Tool to list a user's files and folders in google drive. use this to search or browse for files and folders based on various criteria.

Why this helps

You check your calendar but don't know which files in Drive belong to each event. This creates two separate workflows instead of one integrated view.

  • See all prep materials in one place for each event.
  • Instantly know if you have files ready for upcoming meetings.
  • Reduces need to switch between calendar and Drive.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Google Drive to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis, 'List all Drive files related to my upcoming calendar events' or set this in the portal.
  • 3Choose the trigger: 'Calendar Event Sync' (or 'Notis Cron' for periodic reports).
  • 4Specify how to match files to events (by name, keyword, folder, etc.).
  • 5Notis will generate a report or send you a list via your preferred channel.

Questions about this workflow

How far ahead will it look for upcoming events?

You can specify: just today, this week, this month, or a custom date range.

Can I get this as a document or just a message?

Both. Notis can send a message and create a doc, or choose your preferred format.
