Notis

Stay on top of Apify runs with a scheduled review

Let Notis gather run history on a schedule and report which runs may need your attention.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get list of runs

Tool to get a list of runs for a specific actor. use when you need to paginate through runs and optionally filter by status before processing run data.

Why this helps

Checking run history manually makes it easy to miss stalled or failed collection work.

  • See run status without opening Apify each time.
  • Make failed or unfinished work easier to spot.
  • Receive reviews on a cadence that fits your workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apify once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis which Actor's runs to retrieve and which statuses or details to call out.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real Actor that has run history.

Questions about this workflow

Can this review multiple Actors?

Specify the Actor or Actors in your instruction and make sure the run history action has the information it needs.

Does this rerun failed jobs?

No. It retrieves run history for review; it does not start or resurrect runs.

TriggerPolling

Delete Actor

Tool to delete an actor permanently. use when you need to remove an actor by its id or username~actorname. confirm before calling.

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.

TriggerPolling
