Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
A new comment added to a Google Doc, Sheet, or Slide.
Will every comment create a quotation?
The instruction can ask Notis to create a quotation only when the comment contains a clear quote request and enough customer and scope information. Incomplete requests should be reported for follow-up.
Can it create a quotation if the customer is not identifiable?
The available actions do not include customer lookup by a specific identifier. Provide an identifiable customer reference in the comment or have Notis report that the request needs review.

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.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
