Review BART advisories alongside your Drive travel plans
Set a recurring check so current BART advisories are reviewed against the travel plans you care about.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Service Advisories
Tool to fetch current bart service advisories. use when you need up-to-date system-wide or station-level alerts before presenting or planning transit routes.
Why this helps
Founders with upcoming travel can forget to check service advisories until a disruption affects the trip.
- Create a recurring reminder to review current BART advisories.
- Compare advisories with the Drive plans named in your instruction.
- Keep transit checks from depending on memory.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Bart once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve current BART advisories and review them against the Drive travel plans you specify.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real travel plan and confirm the advisory summary is useful.

Get GTFS-RT Trip Updates
Tool to fetch real-time trip updates in gtfs-realtime format. use when you need the latest live trip information as raw protobuf.
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.
