Ways Notis can move work from Google Drive to Affinda
Parse new resumes from Drive
Send matching Drive resumes to Affinda for structured extraction, so candidate details are ready to review without opening each file.
Extract data from new Drive invoices
Create an Affinda document from each new invoice file in Drive to extract invoice details for review and processing.
Structure job descriptions from Drive
Send matching job description files from Drive to Affinda so their contents are available in a structured document for hiring workflows.
Reparse resumes when Drive files change
Resubmit an updated resume to Affinda so revised candidate information can be extracted from the latest file.
Record resume review outcomes from Drive comments
Use a new Drive comment as a prompt to record a validation result for the related Affinda document after you identify it in your instruction.
Apply resume corrections from a new Drive revision
When a corrected resume file is created in Drive, use its contents to update parsed data on the identified Affinda resume document.
Parse resumes when they are shared in Drive
When a resume is newly shared in Drive, create an Affinda document from the file for structured parsing.
Label new Affinda documents by Drive folder
Create an Affinda tag for newly created Drive documents based on the folder or other context supplied in your instruction.
Review available Affinda extractors on a schedule
On a schedule, retrieve Affinda's available extractors so you can review processing options without a manual portal check.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Affinda. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Affinda actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Batch Update Annotations
Tool to update multiple annotations in one request. use when you need to modify parsed values or other fields across many annotations at once.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Collection
Tool to create a new collection. use after you have a valid workspace id and want to group documents by a specific extractor within that workspace.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Create Document
Tool to upload a new document for parsing. use when you have the document file or a public url and need to extract structured data immediately.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Create Organization
Tool to create a new organization. use when you have a unique organization name and want to group resources under it.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Create RESTHook Subscription
Tool to create a new resthook subscription. use after confirming your webhook endpoint is ready to receive document event notifications.
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.
Create Tag
Tool to create a new tag. use when you need to label documents in a specific workspace.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Create Validation Result
Tool to create a validation result. use when recording validation outcomes for a document after parsing.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
Create Workspace
Tool to create a new workspace. use when you need to programmatically create a workspace container within an organization.
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.
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.
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.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
