Start every content project with a clear view of the Contentful spaces you can use.
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
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
New project documents often start before anyone confirms where the work belongs in Contentful.
- Reduces setup backtracking
- Shows available spaces early
- Keeps project kickoff focused

Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Contentful space?
No. It lists spaces you already can access and reports the results.
Can Notis choose a space automatically?
It can recommend a space from the document context, but the available action only lists spaces.
