Create a Clientary client from a new Drive folder
A new client folder can start the operational setup automatically, before details get buried across files.
Trigger
New Folder Created in Root
Triggers when a new folder is created in the root folder of Google Drive. This trigger monitors Google Drive and fires when new folders are detected in the root directory.
Action
Create Client
Tool to create a new client record in Clientary. Use when you need to add a new client to the system with company details and contact information.
Why this helps
Creating a folder is often the first onboarding step, but client setup still depends on a separate reminder.
- Start onboarding from an existing signal
- Reduce setup reminders
- Keep document based context together
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Docs and Clientary in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for new client folders.
- 3Tell Notis to review the folder's available documents and create a Clientary client only when sufficient company details are present.
- 4Pick New Folder Created in Root as the trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one new client folder.
Questions about this workflow
Does the folder event include all client details?
Not necessarily. Ask Notis to inspect the available documents and report what is missing.
Can it create a contact too?
Pair this with a separate contact workflow when the folder contains a confirmed contact.
