Identify role accounts before contacting a new list
When a new contact list arrives, identify addresses such as shared team mailboxes so your team can review its outreach plan.
Trigger
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Action
Role Account Verifier
Tool to determine if an email is a role-based account. Use when identifying group mailboxes (e.g., support@) before sending targeted communications.
Why this helps
A generic mailbox can be mistaken for an individual contact, leading to a poorly targeted follow up.
- Highlight group mailboxes for review.
- Help tailor outreach to the kind of address in the list.
- Reduce manual inspection of contact addresses.
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 check the addresses in a new contacts file with Clearout Role Account Verifier.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real contacts file.
Questions about this workflow
What is a role account?
A role account is an address used by a group or function, such as support@, rather than a named individual.
Does this verify whether the address can receive email?
No. The role account action identifies role based addresses. Use Clearout Instant Email Verifier for address validation.

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.
