Why this helps
A short localization request can turn into a context switch to check language availability and codes.
- Look up Google-supported languages after a new localization comment.
- Keep the request and resulting lookup tied to the same discussion.
- Reduce manual searching for language codes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Autom once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to use the new comment's localization request as the search context and retrieve relevant Google-supported languages with Autom.
- 4Pick the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real localization comment.

File Created

Google Locations
Tool to retrieve google-supported locations. use when searching for locations by name. returns locations ordered by reach (most populous first).
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
