Enrich a prospect when a matching Drive file appears
Use a Drive query to identify relevant new prospect files, then ask Clearout for profile details tied to a valid email address.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Reverse Lookup Person by Email
Tool to retrieve a person’s profile from an email address. Use when you want to enrich a valid email with associated person details.
Why this helps
Prospect details are easy to leave incomplete when a new matching file requires a separate manual lookup.
- Use an existing Drive query to surface relevant new files.
- Start person research from an email address in a matching file.
- Reduce the gap between finding a prospect and reviewing their details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Clearout once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to look up the person associated with the email in each matching prospect file using Clearout Reverse Lookup Person by Email.
- 4Pick the Google Drive New File Matching Query trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file that matches the query and contains an email address.
Questions about this workflow
What does the matching query do?
The Google Drive trigger detects new files that match the query configured for the trigger. Choose a query that finds the prospect files you want to process.
Does this action validate the email first?
The action looks up a person by email. If you need to validate an address first, use Clearout Instant Email Verifier in a separate workflow.

Find Domain MX Records
Tool to retrieve MX records for a domain in priority order. Use when you need to find a domain's mail servers (e.g., for email routing setup).
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.
Fetch Domain WHOIS Information
