Update Alttext.ai account settings from a request

Send a request to Notis when an account setting needs to change, and keep the update focused on confirmed account details.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Update Account

Tool to update account settings (e.g., webhook url, name). use after confirming current account details to modify settings.

Why this helps

Small account-setting changes can get lost when they require finding the right tool and checking the current configuration first.

  • Start an account-setting task with an HTTP request.
  • Base the change on retrieved current account details.
  • Receive a run report with the result of the update.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Alttext.ai once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3Describe the outcome: retrieve current Alttext.ai account details, then update only the supported settings explicitly specified in the request and report the result.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and review the report.

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.
