Why this helps
An IP found during Drive activity review can lead to a separate, easy-to-forget lookup step.
- Use an available IP address to identify a company.
- Keep the lookup close to the Drive change event.
- Skip manual tool switching for IP based 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 use an IP address only when it is present in the change data and run IP to Company Lookup.
- 4Choose the Google Drive Changes trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real change record that includes an IP address.
Questions about this workflow
Will every Drive change include an IP address?
No. The event description does not guarantee an IP address. The instruction should run the lookup only when one is present.
What does the action return?
IP to Company Lookup uses an IP address to look up company information.

File Created

File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
