Why this helps
A lead brief can sit untouched while you switch between Drive and your calling workflow.
- Start follow-up when a new lead brief appears.
- Use the brief to give the call relevant context.
- Reduce manual copy and paste between Drive and Bolna.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Bolna once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis: When a new Drive file contains a lead's phone number and call context, use the specified Bolna agent to call them and include the context.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Created trigger.
- 5Choose where run reports should go, then test with one real lead brief.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a Bolna agent?
No. The workflow uses the agent you specify in your instruction; the action starts a call from that agent.
What should the Drive file contain?
Include the lead's phone number, the call context, and the Bolna agent to use. Test with a real example to confirm the details are usable.

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.
