Why this helps
Important deliverables can sit unnoticed in Drive while teams wait for someone to notice and share them.
- Flag new deliverables without asking teammates to monitor Drive.
- Put the file name and useful context in a concise text.
- Choose the reviewer and message in plain language.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and ClickSend once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction who to text when a new file is created and what the message should include.
- 4Choose the Google Drive File Created trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real file and confirm the SMS is useful.
Questions about this workflow
Can the text include the new file's name?
Yes. Ask Notis to include available file details, such as its name, in the message.
Can I choose who gets notified?
Yes. Name the recipient or describe the intended recipient in your instruction. Provide a phone number or other contact detail if Notis cannot identify one from connected data.

Calculate Post Letter Price

File Deleted or Trashed

Calculate SMS Campaign Price
Tool to calculate the price for an SMS campaign before sending. Use when you need to estimate costs for an SMS campaign to a contact list. Pricing depends on the number of recipients, message length, and destination countries.
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.
