Add risk category context to new Drive comments
Comments often contain the first clue that a compliance item needs attention. Give the discussion useful 21risk category context while it is fresh.
Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Action
Get RiskModel Categories
Tool to retrieve risk model categories for grouping questions and compliance checks. use when you need to filter, select, or paginate risk model categories via odata parameters ($filter, $select, $orderby, $top, $skip, $count).
Why this helps
Important compliance questions in document comments can get buried among routine edits and review notes.
- Bring risk model category context into comment review.
- Help separate compliance questions from routine document discussion.
- Make the next human follow-up easier to identify.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and 21risk once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for comment triage.
- 3Tell Notis: when a comment is added to a Drive document, retrieve 21risk risk model categories and summarize any plausible category context for the comment. Flag uncertain matches.
- 4Pick the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real comment and confirm the category summary is useful.
Questions about this workflow
Does this assign a category to the comment in 21risk?
No. The available action retrieves risk model categories. Notis can suggest context for review, but it does not assign or update categories.
What if the comment lacks enough detail?
The report should say that the category is unclear. You can provide criteria in the instruction if your team uses specific language for categorization.

Google Drive triggers
21risk actions
Recurring trigger

Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Items (BETA)
Tool to retrieve items (beta) from the 21risk odata api. use when you need a filtered and paged list of items for analytics and reporting. example: get items($filter="item cost gt 100", $top=50).
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Get Items Per Month
Tool to retrieve fact table data for itemspermonth, one row per question per site per month. use when querying monthly item data with odata parameters ($filter, $top, $skip, $select, maxpagesizeinmb).
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Get Organizations
Tool to retrieve organizations from the 21risk odata api. use when you need to list, filter, or paginate organizations via odata parameters after authentication is confirmed.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Get Properties
Tool to fetch a list of properties related to sites, including cope information and other relevant data. use when you need property insurance details via odata api after authentication.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Get Reports
Tool to retrieve audit reports, including draft, published, and scheduled reports. use when you need a paginated list of reports with optional odata filtering.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
