Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Action

Tool to list appointments. Use when fetching appointments with optional filters and pagination after confirming a valid API token.
Why this helps
Scheduling questions buried in document comments are easy to miss when you have to switch apps and search appointments by hand.
- Find relevant appointments from a new comment's context.
- Reduce manual searching across Drive and Appointo.
- Get a run report with the lookup results for follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Appointo once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to review each new Drive comment, identify any appointment reference, look up matching Appointo appointments, and report results without guessing missing details.
- 4Choose the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real comment and review the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create or change an appointment?
No. It lists appointments so you can review matching details. It does not create or update bookings.
What if a comment does not identify an appointment clearly?
The instruction should ask Notis to report that it could not confidently find a match, rather than guess.
Can it read comments in every Drive file?
This trigger is for comments added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.

List Appointments
Tool to list appointments. Use when fetching appointments with optional filters and pagination after confirming a valid API token.
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.
List Bookings
Tool to list bookings. Use when you need to fetch bookings filtered by status, paging, or search term.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
List Products
