Review Basin submissions when a Drive file matches your query

When a relevant file lands in Drive, gather the submissions that need your attention into the same review moment.

Trigger

New File Matching Query

Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.

Action

Get Submissions

Tool to retrieve all submissions for a specific form. use when you need to list entries after obtaining the form id.

Why this helps

Project signals and form responses often live in separate places, leaving founders to remember to check both.

  • Tie a response review to the arrival of a relevant Drive file.
  • Reduce the number of separate places to check for project progress.
  • Let Notis summarize returned submissions in the report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Basin once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the review.
  • 3Tell Notis to fetch submissions for a specified Basin form when the matching file arrives, then summarize the results for review.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive New File Matching Query trigger and choose the report destination.
  • 5Test with one matching file and a confirmed Basin form ID.

Questions about this workflow

Can the trigger query locate the Basin form?

No. It matches new Drive files. The Basin form ID must be supplied in the instruction or otherwise available to the automation.

Can Notis identify trends in submissions?

It can analyze the submissions returned by Basin. Any comparison baseline or history needed should be supplied or named as missing.

Delete Form

Tool to delete a form. use when permanently removing a form after it's no longer needed. ensure the form id is correct; this operation is irreversible.

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.
