Review your Actor schema when the template changes

Structural changes can trigger a quick check of the interface your collection uses.

Trigger

Document Structure Changed

Triggers when a Google Doc's structure changes (headers/footers added/removed, tables/images count changes). This trigger monitors a specific document for structural changes like: - Headers added or removed - Footers added or removed - Tables added or removed - Images (inline objects) added or removed - Positioned objects added or removed - Footnotes added or removed

Action

Get OpenAPI Definition

Tool to get the openapi definition for a specific actor build. use when you need the api schema for code generation or analysis.

Why this helps

A template gains new sections, but nobody checks whether the Actor input contract still fits.

  • Surfaces the current schema
  • Supports safer template evolution
  • Reduces hidden input mismatches

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Apify in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation describing which Actor build schema to retrieve after a structure change.
  • 3Pick Document Structure Changed and select the document.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test after one structural edit.
