Keep an eye on available Affinda extractors
Ask Notis to fetch the extractor list on a recurring schedule and make the result easy to find.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Extractors
Tool to retrieve a list of all extractors. use when you need to paginate through available extractors.
Why this helps
Checking available extraction options manually adds another small task to an already crowded week.
- Retrieve the current available extractor list on a schedule.
- Avoid remembering a recurring manual check.
- Send the run report to a channel you already use.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for extractor review.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the available Affinda extractors and summarize the result in its run report.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test the automation and review the report.

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.
