Publish approved starter wording from a completed Doc
Finish a content brief in Google Docs and let Notis update the matching Botsonic starter question.
Trigger
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.
Action
Update Starter Question

Why this helps
Approved chatbot prompts wait in documents while someone manually re-enters them in Botsonic.
- Uses document completion as a clear handoff
- Cuts copy and paste work
- Keeps approved prompt wording consistent

Questions about this workflow
Where does the starter question ID come from?
