Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Attio. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Google Drive triggers

Attio actions

Recurring trigger

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

TriggerScheduled

Create Note

This tool creates a new note on a given record in attio. the note can be attached to any record type (like person, company, or deal) and includes a title and content. it requires parameters such as parent object, parent record id, title, and content, with an optional created at timestamp.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Create Record

This tool creates a new record in attio for a specified object type (people, companies, deals, users, workspaces, etc.). it requires the object type and a values dictionary containing the attributes for the new record.

ActionInstant

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

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

TriggerPolling

Delete Note

This tool allows users to delete a specific note in attio by its id. it is implemented via delete https://api.attio.com/v2/notes/{note id} and handles note deletion by validating the provided note id. it complements attio create note functionality, providing complete note management capabilities within the attio platform.

ActionInstant

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

Delete Record

This tool allows you to delete a record from attio permanently. the deletion is irreversible, and the data will eventually be removed from the system.

ActionInstant

File Deleted or Trashed

Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.

TriggerPolling

Find Record

This tool allows users to find a record in attio by either its unique id or by searching using unique attributes. it provides two methods: one for directly retrieving a record by its id with the get /v2/objects/{object}/records/{record id} endpoint, and another for searching by attributes using the post /v2/objects/{object}/records/query endpoint.

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

Get Object Details

This tool retrieves detailed information about a specific object type in attio, including all its attributes and their properties. this is useful for understanding what fields are available when creating or updating records of this type.

ActionInstant

File Updated

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

TriggerPolling

List Lists

This tool retrieves all lists available in the attio workspace. the lists are returned sorted as they appear in the sidebar. this tool is essential for managing and navigating lists, and is a prerequisite for many list-related operations. it requires the list configuration:read permission scope.

ActionInstant

Google Drive Changes

Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.

TriggerPolling

List Notes

This tool lists all notes associated with a specific record in attio. notes are returned in reverse chronological order (newest first).

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Any HTTP POSTCustom backendIoT event

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
