Review pipeline workflows after a release file disappears
A missing release document can prompt a quick check of related pipeline work.
Trigger
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Action
List Workflows by Pipeline ID
Tool to list all workflows associated with a specific pipeline. use when you need to fetch or paginate through workflows by pipeline id.
Why this helps
A release file disappears from Drive and its effect on active delivery work can be easy to miss.
- Prompt a review when a release artifact is removed.
- Bring related pipeline workflow status into the follow-up.
- Help prevent delivery context from disappearing unnoticed.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and CircleCI once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the release file follow-up.
- 3Tell Notis to identify the related pipeline and retrieve its workflows when a release file is deleted or trashed.
- 4Pick the File Deleted or Trashed trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real deletion event and confirm the report identifies useful workflows.
Questions about this workflow
Can the deleted file identify its CircleCI pipeline?
Only when the available event context and your instruction provide a reliable link. Supply the project or pipeline identification rule if it cannot be inferred.
Does this restore the deleted file?
No. The selected CircleCI action lists workflows by pipeline ID. The workflow supports review and follow-up.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Circleci. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Circleci actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get Job Artifacts
Tool to retrieve artifacts produced by a specific job. use after a job has completed to list its output files.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get Job Details
Tool to fetch details of a specific job within a project. use when you need status, timing, and executor information for a circleci job by its number.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Get Pipeline Config
Tool to fetch pipeline configuration by id. use when you need the source or compiled yaml of a specific pipeline.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Get Test Metadata
Tool to fetch test metadata for a specific job. use when you need detailed test results, run times, and failure messages after a job completes.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Get User Information
Tool to retrieve information about a circleci user by their unique id. use when you need user profile details after obtaining the user id.
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.
List Pipelines for Project
Tool to list all pipelines for a specific project. use when you need to retrieve the pipelines for a project (e.g., to display recent runs on a dashboard).
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
List Self-Hosted Runners
Tool to list available self-hosted runners. use when you need to retrieve all configured self-hosted runners for your organization.
Google Drive Changes
