Pair a newly shared Drive file with an Abyssale design review

When a Drive file is shared with collaborators, Notis can retrieve available Abyssale designs and place the results in your run reports for review.

Trigger

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.

Action

Get Designs

Tool to retrieve all designs with optional filtering by category or type. use after authenticating to list available templates.

Why this helps

New collaborators may need to find suitable creative starting points, but template discovery often happens in a separate session.

  • Make available designs easier to review after a sharing change.
  • Keep template discovery connected to the collaboration handoff.
  • Send results to a report channel your team already checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Abyssale once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then enter a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve available Abyssale designs when Drive sharing permissions are added and report the results.
  • 4Choose the Google Drive File Shared trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real file sharing change and review the design list.

Questions about this workflow

Will this select or share a design with the new collaborator?

No. The available Abyssale action retrieves designs; it does not select, edit, or share a design.

What starts the automation?

It starts when new sharing permissions are granted to a Google Drive file or folder.
