Start a development record update from a webhook
When another system sends an HTTP request, have Notis call your Appdrag development PATCH function with the supplied context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Execute Dev Function (PATCH)
Tool to execute the development version of a Cloud Backend API function via PATCH. Use after deploying or updating your function to the dev environment.
Why this helps
A handoff arrives through a webhook, but updating a development record still takes a separate manual step.
- Start the workflow from an incoming HTTP request.
- Exercise a PATCH function in Appdrag development.
- Keep request-driven update trials easy to review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appdrag once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Describe how the supplied webhook request should be used by the Appdrag development PATCH function.
- 4Pick the HTTP webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by sending one real request and inspecting the development function result.

Execute Preprod Function (DELETE)
Tool to execute the pre-production version of a Cloud Backend API function via DELETE. Use when you need to test or validate delete operations in the preprod environment before production deployment.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Execute Cloud Backend function via POST
Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via POST on the default environment. Use when you need to call a function with POST parameters and optional APIKey.
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.
Execute Function POST (Preprod Env)
Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via POST on the preprod environment. Use when you need to test a function in the preprod environment before releasing to production. Include apiKey if your function requires APIKey security.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Execute Cloud Backend function via PUT (default)
Tool to execute a Cloud Backend API function via PUT on the default environment. Use when you need to call a function with PUT parameters and optional APIKey.
