Create scan intake questions from a new Google Doc
Capture the questions your operators need before the first scan.
Trigger
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.
Action
Collect Data With Questions
Tool to configure data collection forms by adding custom questions. Use after creating a service to collect survey questions after each scan.
Why this helps
New scan projects stall when intake questions are designed in a separate manual step.
- Shortens project setup
- Captures operator needs early
- Creates consistent scan forms

- 2Create an automation for new scan briefs.
- 3Tell Notis to extract requested operator questions and add them to the relevant CodeREADr service.
- 4Pick New Document Created as the trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one new brief.
Questions about this workflow
