Ways Notis can move work from Google Docs to Beeminder
Review Beeminder goals when a new Google Doc appears
When a new Google Doc is created, retrieve the user's active Beeminder goals and summarize which goal might relate to the document.
Check archived goals after a document is deleted
When a Google Doc is moved to trash, retrieve archived Beeminder goals so you can assess whether related commitments should be closed or retained.
Fetch Beeminder context when a document placeholder is filled
When a configured placeholder disappears from a Google Doc, retrieve Beeminder user information and report timezone, urgency, and goal context.
Check goal alignment for updated Google Docs
When a searched set of Google Docs changes, retrieve active Beeminder goals and summarize alignment, gaps, or follow-up needs.
Check Beeminder readiness after document structure changes
When a Google Doc gains or loses tables, headers, footers, or images, retrieve Beeminder user information to support the next handoff.
Summarize active Beeminder goals after document edits
When an existing Google Doc is updated, retrieve active Beeminder goals and produce a concise summary of goals relevant to the edit.
Check Beeminder urgency when a document reaches a word threshold
When a Google Doc crosses a configured word or character count, retrieve Beeminder user information and report urgency and goal context.
Review Beeminder goals when a new root folder is created
When a new Google Drive root folder appears, retrieve active Beeminder goals and identify goals that may relate to the new initiative.
Fetch Beeminder urgency when a key phrase appears
When a configured keyword first appears in a Google Doc, retrieve Beeminder user information and report relevant urgency and goals.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Docs to Beeminder. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Docs triggers
Beeminder actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Authenticate and Redirect User
Tool to authenticate a user and redirect them to a given url. use when sending a user into the beeminder web ui directly after oauth or token validation.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Charge
Tool to create a new charge for a user. use when billing a user outside of goal pledges; supports dryrun mode.
New Document Created
Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.
Get all goals
Tool to retrieve all goals for a specified user. use when listing a user's active goals.
Document Deleted
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.
Get Archived Goals
Tool to retrieve archived goals for a specified user. use when you need to inspect a user's past archived goals.
Document Placeholder Filled
Triggers when a Google Doc's plain text changes such that a configured placeholder token/pattern is no longer present (i.e., the document has been filled in). This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when a placeholder pattern that was previously present is no longer found in the document's plain text.
Get Beeminder User Information
Tool to retrieve information about a specified beeminder user. use when you need to fetch details like timezone, goals, urgency, or deleted goals after authenticating successfully.
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
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
Document Updated
Triggers when an existing Google Doc is updated or modified. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are updated.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
