Review localization projects after source deletion

Keep abandoned source work from quietly consuming attention.

Trigger

Document Deleted

Triggers when an existing Google Doc is deleted (moved to trash). This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when documents are trashed.

Action

Delete Project

Tool to delete a crowdin project by its id. use when you need to permanently remove a project after confirming no further usage. ensure all resources are no longer needed before deletion.

Why this helps

Deleted source documents leave stale localization projects that no one remembers to audit.

  • Surfaces obsolete projects
  • Supports deliberate cleanup
  • Prevents accidental deletion

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Crowdin in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation to find related projects and report cleanup candidates.
  • 3Pick Document Deleted as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report destination and test with one safely deleted document.

Questions about this workflow

Does this delete projects automatically?

No, ask Notis to report candidates first so deletion remains an explicit decision.

How are related projects identified?

Use shared names, release codes, or references supplied in the automation instruction.
