Move a New Drive Request Toward an Appointo Booking
Let a new scheduling request start the booking process, with a clear check for missing details and availability before Appointo creates the booking.
Trigger
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Action
Create Booking
Tool to create a new booking. Use when scheduling a customer booking after confirming appointment availability.
Why this helps
Appointment requests arrive in documents, and copying details into a booking flow adds delay and invites mistakes.
- Start booking work as soon as a request file appears.
- Surface missing customer or appointment details before booking.
- Create a booking only when required details and an available slot are confirmed.
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 name it for the booking request process.
- 3Tell Notis to review each new request file, extract only stated booking details, check Appointo availability, and create a booking only when the appointment, customer, and time are unambiguous and available.
- 4Choose the Google Drive File Created trigger and select a report channel.
- 5Test with one real request and check the Appointo booking and Notis run report.
Questions about this workflow
Does every new Drive file become a booking?
No. The instruction should limit processing to recognizable appointment requests and require complete details and confirmed availability.
What happens when the request omits a time or customer detail?
Notis should report what is missing for you to resolve. It should not invent booking information.
Can this guarantee the requested slot remains available?
Availability is checked before creating the booking, but the workflow should report if the slot is unavailable rather than book a different time without direction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Appointo. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Appointo actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Authenticate Appointo API Token
Tool to authenticate with the Appointo API by validating the APPOINTO-TOKEN header. Use when verifying the token before subsequent API calls.
Webhook trigger

Cancel Booking

Create Booking

Get Appointment Availability
Tool to get calendar availability for a specific appointment. Use when you need to fetch available time slots for an appointment within a date range.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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
Tool to fetch all available products. Use when browsing products with optional paging and search. Call after authenticating with Appointo API.
