Start domain discovery from matching Drive files
Files that match a focused Drive query can become the start of company discovery, with less manual triage.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Name to Domain Search
Tool to find company domain(s) by company name. use when you have a company name and need up to 3 likely domains.
Why this helps
A relevant brief can match a Drive search and still leave someone to figure out the company website by hand.
- Start research from newly matching Drive files.
- Find up to three likely domains based on a company name.
- Keep a focused set of incoming research moving.

- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to identify the intended company name in a matching file and use Name to Domain Search to find likely domains.
- 4Choose the New File Matching Query trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file that matches the query.

File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
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.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
