Check available lineups from fixture notes

When a new file names a fixture, Notis can check for available starters and substitutes and report the lineup status.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

Get Fixture Lineups

Tool to retrieve starting xi and substitutes for a fixture. use after confirming fixture id; optionally filter by team, player, or section (startxi/substitutes). lineups appear ~20-40 minutes before kickoff for supported competitions.

Why this helps

Lineups are easy to miss when a fixture brief and the latest match details live in separate places.

  • Retrieves lineup information for an identified fixture.
  • Summarizes starting players and substitutes when available.
  • Can make lineup availability timing clear in the report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and API-Sports once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to read new fixture files, identify the fixture, retrieve lineup information, and summarize available starters and substitutes or report that data is not yet available.
  • 4Choose File Created as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real fixture brief.

Questions about this workflow

Will lineups always be available?

No. The action notes that lineups appear about 20 to 40 minutes before kickoff for supported competitions.

Can the lookup be limited to one team?

Yes. The action optionally filters by team, player, or lineup section.

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.
