Create credential evidence from a Drive comment

Comments on program documents can contain useful evidence. Have Notis turn the relevant comment into an Accredible evidence item for the credential you specify.

Trigger

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.

Action

Create Evidence Item

Tool to create a new evidence item for a credential. use after confirming credential id.

Why this helps

Evidence details can get buried in document discussions while credential records remain incomplete.

  • Capture relevant evidence details from a new document comment.
  • Keep credential evidence connected to the credential ID you specify.
  • Reduce the need to retype context from a document discussion.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Accredible certificates once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
  • 3In one instruction, identify the credential ID and explain which comment details qualify as evidence.
  • 4Pick Comment Added as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment and confirm the credential ID is correct.

Create Group

ActionInstant

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.
