Turn a new Drive brief into a Best Buy product shortlist

Drop a buying brief into Drive and let Notis find relevant Best Buy products for your next decision.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

Get Products

Tool to retrieve products from best buy. use when you need to fetch product listings with optional filters and sorting. example: 'get products for category abcat0101000 sorted by saleprice.dsc.'

Why this helps

Product research gets delayed when a brief is separated from the catalog search it calls for.

  • Start product research when a new brief is created.
  • Get a focused set of listings to review.
  • Avoid manually copying search intent between apps.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Best Buy once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the new file's content to search Best Buy for relevant products and report the listings.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real product brief in Drive.

Questions about this workflow

What does this workflow use as its search cue?

Notis can interpret the new file's content as the request for a Best Buy product search. Mention the product type and any preferences in the brief.

Does it place an order?

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.
