Carry scope feedback from Drive comments into proposals
Keep requested changes attached to the proposal work they affect, instead of letting document comments become another inbox to revisit.
Trigger
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Action
Create Proposal Section
Tool to create a proposal section. use after confirming a proposal exists to add a new opening or closing section.
Why this helps
Feedback in a document comment can be overlooked while the proposal is being finalized.
- Capture scope feedback where proposal work happens.
- Reduce missed comment follow-ups.
- Flag comments that need a decision before changing proposal content.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Bidsketch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to assess new comments on scope documents and add clear requested clarifications to the matching proposal section, reporting questions that need a decision.
- 4Pick the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real comment and verify the resulting section change.
Questions about this workflow
Will every comment be applied automatically?
The instruction can limit changes to clear, actionable requests. Ask Notis to report ambiguous feedback for review rather than interpreting it as approval.
What information is needed to locate the proposal?
Provide a stable proposal or client reference in the document or instruction. If it is missing, have Notis report the comment without editing a proposal.

Delete Proposal Fee
Tool to delete a proposal fee. use when you need to remove an existing fee before finalizing or sending a proposal.
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.
