Create a Basin submission notification from a Drive share event

A new sharing change can signal that a team needs submission updates routed to a Basin notification destination.

Trigger

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.

Action

Create Notification

Tool to create a new notification webhook. use when you need to forward form submissions to an external service.

Why this helps

When access expands around a project file, the people who need form updates may still be missing from the notification flow.

  • Use a concrete file sharing event to prompt notification setup.
  • Reduce manual coordination after access changes.
  • Keep the target form and notification destination explicit.

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 it for the notification route.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis when to create a Basin notification webhook and include the form and destination details it should use.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Shared trigger and select a report channel.
  • 5Test with a real sharing change and verify the notification destination.

Questions about this workflow

Does Drive sharing automatically identify the Basin form?

No. The prompt needs to specify the form and the external notification destination, or explain how Notis can identify them from available context.

What does the Basin action create?

It creates a notification webhook for forwarding form submissions to an external service.
