Review indexed records related to a deleted Doc

A Doc moved to trash. Check the index for related records that may still need attention.

Trigger

Document Deleted

Triggers when a document is moved to the trash.

Action

Query Index

Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.

Why this helps

Deleting a source document can leave related indexed material or references that are easy to overlook.

  • Prompt a review of potentially related indexed material.
  • Help catch references that may need separate cleanup.
  • Keep document deletion follow-up visible.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis to search a chosen index for records related to the deleted document and report them for review.
  • 3Pick the Document Deleted trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real document moved to trash and inspect the query results.

Questions about this workflow

Does this remove matching Elasticsearch records?

No. The available Elasticsearch action searches records but does not delete them. Review any results and handle changes separately.

What does the Google Docs event represent?

The listed event fires when an existing Google Doc is deleted by being moved to trash.
