Turn company mentions in Drive comments into profiles

A confirmed domain in a document comment can move directly into company research, without another search detour.

Trigger

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.

Action

Company Find

Tool to lookup company data by domain name. use when you need detailed company profile by providing a website domain. use after confirming domain correctness.

Why this helps

Useful company details get buried in comment threads while founders switch between documents and research tools.

  • Look up company details when a new comment names a domain.
  • Keep research tied to the document discussion that prompted it.
  • Reduce context switching between Drive and company research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Bigpicture io once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to check new comments for a confirmed company domain and retrieve its company profile with Company Find.
  • 4Choose the Comment Added trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment containing a confirmed domain.

TriggerPolling

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.

TriggerPolling

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
