Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Get Google Ads By Company
Retrieve all google ads for a given company domain.
Why this helps
A tracker can change while old ad notes remain untouched, leaving founders to remember which research needs another look.
- Uses a tracker update as a clear prompt to revisit a company.
- Returns current lookup results rather than relying on old notes.
- Calls out when a company domain is absent from the updated file.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Adyntel once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a tracker refresh name.
- 3Tell Notis to read the company domain from the updated tracker, retrieve Google ads, and summarize findings while noting missing inputs.
- 4Pick the File Updated trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real tracker update containing a company domain.

File Deleted or Trashed

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