Review short links after a Google Doc is deleted

A deleted document should not make useful campaign links disappear from your awareness.

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

View Last Shortened URLs

This action retrieves a list of recently shortened urls from your cutt.ly account. it allows users to view their latest shortened links and their details. note: due to api limitations, this action may not return all historical urls. for complete history, please use the cutt.ly dashboard.

Why this helps

Trashed documents can hide links that still matter to launches, partners, or customers.

  • Surface links connected to discarded documents
  • Create a recovery checklist quickly
  • Reduce the risk of losing launch assets

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Cutt ly in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for deleted document recovery review.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve recent Cutt ly URLs and flag links that may need reassignment after a document is trashed.
  • 4Pick Document Deleted as the trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test it by moving one noncritical document to trash.

Questions about this workflow

Can this restore the deleted document?

No. It only reviews recent Cutt ly URLs after the deletion event.

Will it show every historical URL?

Cutt ly may return only a recent subset because of API limits.
