Keep Bugbug checks in sync with Drive test plan updates
When you revise a test plan, Notis can start the corresponding Bugbug test so the change gets a fresh check.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Run test
Execute a test in bugbug and return the test run details. this action allows you to run a specific test with optional configuration for browser, device, viewport, and variable overrides. it returns detailed information about the test run including step-by-step execution status.
Why this helps
A test plan can change without anyone remembering to rerun the related test, leaving teams unsure whether the latest approach works.
- Prompt a fresh run after a plan changes.
- Keep test updates connected to execution.
- See the run report without switching apps to start the test.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Bugbug once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the workflow.
- 3Tell Notis which Bugbug test to run when the relevant Drive test plan is updated.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real plan update and check the returned Bugbug run details.
Questions about this workflow
Will every Drive file update start a test?
The selected trigger is File Updated. In your instruction, describe the plan Notis should treat as relevant and test that recognition with a real update.
Can Notis tell whether a test passed?
The Run test action returns execution status and step-by-step details. Notis can include those results in the run report.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Bugbug. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Bugbug actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get test run details
Get detailed information about test runs from bugbug. this action retrieves test run details with optional filtering parameters.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List suites

List tests
Retrieves a list of all available tests in the bugbug account. this action provides access to all tests in the account with pagination support. it returns basic information about each test including its id, name, description, and timestamps.
File Created

Run test
Execute a test in bugbug and return the test run details. this action allows you to run a specific test with optional configuration for browser, device, viewport, and variable overrides. it returns detailed information about the test run including step-by-step execution status.
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
