Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Addressfinder. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Google Drive triggers

Addressfinder actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

AU Address Autocomplete

Tool to perform interactive search of Australian addresses from the AddressFinder database. Use when you need to search for and autocomplete Australian addresses based on partial input.

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Get AU Location Metadata

Tool to retrieve comprehensive metadata for an Australian location (street, suburb, or state) selected from the Location Autocomplete API. Use when you need detailed information about a specific Australian location including coordinates, street details, suburb, state, and postcode.

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.

TriggerPolling

Email Verification API

Tool to verify email addresses including syntax validation, domain existence, and email account verification. Use when you need to validate an email address before sending messages or storing contact information.

ActionInstant

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

Returns address IDs that can be used with the Address Metadata API to retrieve full address details.

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
