Batch-import matching Google Docs into Dromo
A maintained document search can become a reliable batch intake stream.
Trigger
Document Search Update
Triggers when a Google Doc matching a user-defined search query is newly created or updated since the last poll. This trigger uses timestamp filtering to efficiently monitor documents.
Action
Upload File To Headless Import
Tool to upload a file to a headless import. use after obtaining a signed upload url from dromo. performs an http put of raw bytes to the provided signed url.
Why this helps
Teams manually gather matching documents before every batch import, which creates delays and omissions.
- Reduce manual document gathering
- Keep batches tied to a defined query
- Improve intake completeness

- 2Create an automation telling Notis to package the documents returned by the search and upload the batch to Dromo.
- 3Pick Document Search Update as the trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a search that returns a small, known set.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis combine multiple documents?
