Keep company research connected to updated Drive files
When a working brief changes, a confirmed domain can prompt a fresh company profile lookup alongside it.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
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
Updated company briefs can make prior research hard to find or prompt repeated manual lookups.
- Run company research when an existing file changes.
- Keep the lookup connected to the source brief.
- Avoid repeating searches when the domain is already confirmed.
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 the confirmed domain in an updated file to retrieve its company profile with Company Find.
- 4Choose the File Updated trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real updated company file.

File Created

File Deleted or Trashed

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.
