Turn new Drive sharing access into a Cardly webhook
When permissions change on a Drive file or folder, set up Cardly event notifications to keep your outreach systems in sync.
Trigger
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.

Why this helps
New sharing access can be easy to miss when you are tracking permissions across tools.
- Respond sooner when sharing permissions are granted.
- Use Cardly webhook events to notify your connected service.
- Reduce manual checks for newly shared Drive content.
Setup

- 2Create a new automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Cardly webhook when Drive reports new sharing permissions.

- 5Test with a real file that has a new sharing permission.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this automation?
The Google Drive File Shared event, which reports newly granted sharing permissions.
What does it create in Cardly?
A Cardly webhook subscription. The exact target URL and events should be supplied in your instruction if they are not otherwise available.
Can it tell me who received access?
The Drive event includes the current permission set for a change. Ask Notis to include relevant permission details in the webhook setup only if those details are available to the automation.
