Start a fixture lookup when a brief arrives

An HTTP request can start a targeted fixture lookup, turning a submitted brief into a concise API-Sports match report.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Get Fixtures

Tool to retrieve football fixtures/matches. use when filtering fixtures by id, date, league, season, team, or date ranges to get upcoming or past matches.

Why this helps

Match details can sit in intake systems while someone manually transfers them into a separate fixture search.

  • Starts a lookup from an HTTP request.
  • Uses the submitted brief to identify relevant fixture details.
  • Returns the results through the configured run report channel.

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 use the submitted fixture brief to find matching upcoming API-Sports fixtures and summarize the results.
  • 4Choose a webhook as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real fixture brief request to test the workflow.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this workflow?

An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it.

Does this workflow read Drive automatically?

The trigger is the webhook. Include the fixture brief in the request or otherwise ensure the instruction has the details needed for the lookup.

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.
