Shortlist a Contentful space when a keyword appears

Turn a meaningful phrase in your document into a focused workspace decision.

Trigger

Keyword Detected in Document

Triggers when a specific keyword or phrase first appears in a Google Doc. This trigger monitors a Google Doc and fires once when the specified keyword is detected. After the keyword is found, the trigger will not fire again until reset.

Action

List spaces

Lists all spaces that the authenticated user has access to in contentful. this is a fundamental operation needed before performing any other content management actions since most operations require a space id.

Why this helps

Important initiatives surface in text before anyone identifies their Contentful destination.

  • Captures early initiative signals
  • Produces a clear shortlist
  • Reduces routing ambiguity

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Contentful once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named Keyword destination shortlist.
  • 3Tell Notis to list Contentful spaces and recommend a destination when the configured keyword appears.
  • 4Pick Keyword Detected in Document as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one document containing the keyword.

Questions about this workflow

Can it run again for another initiative?

Reset the keyword trigger or create a separate automation for another monitored phrase.

Does it rename a space?

No. It recommends a destination using the list spaces action.
