Keep Bidsketch proposal scope aligned with Drive revisions
A scope revision can reach the proposal section that needs it, while unclear matches stay visible for review.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Update Proposal Section
Tool to update a proposal section. use when you need to modify the name or content of an existing section after verifying its existence.
Why this helps
A proposal can keep an outdated scope after the source document has been revised.
- Reduce stale scope in proposal sections.
- Avoid manually checking every revision.
- Make ambiguous proposal matches visible.
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 update the matching proposal section when a scope file changes, using a stable proposal reference and reporting ambiguous matches.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real revision and verify the updated section content.
Questions about this workflow
Does this monitor every Drive file?
The trigger fires for Drive file updates. Describe in the instruction which scope documents matter, using their names or context, and how Notis should handle unrelated updates.
What if several proposals could match?
Instruct Notis to avoid choosing when the reference is ambiguous and report the candidates for review.

Delete Proposal Fee

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.
