Create an Accredible group from a program brief
Put the program brief in Drive and tell Notis which details define the group. A new file can kick off group creation in Accredible.
Trigger
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Action
Create Group
Tool to create a new group. use after gathering all group details.
Why this helps
Setting up each credential program means repeatedly finding the latest brief and re-entering its agreed details.
- Start group setup when a new program brief is created.
- Use the program details you specify in plain language.
- Reduce repeated copying from planning documents.
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, explain which program details to use and provide any required group details missing from the brief.
- 4Pick File Created as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real program brief before relying on the automation.
Questions about this workflow
What does the program brief need to include?
Include the group details you want Notis to use. Supply any required details that are missing from the file in your instruction.
Can it create a group from an existing Drive file?
This workflow uses the File Created trigger, so it starts when a new file is created in Drive.
Does the action clone a group?
No. It uses Accredible's Create Group action. If you need a copy of an existing group, use a separate workflow and first confirm the source group exists.

Create Group
Tool to create a new group. use after gathering all group details.
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.
Delete Credential
Tool to delete a credential. use after confirming you want to permanently remove an existing credential. executes delete on /credentials/{credential id} endpoint and returns status code.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
