Keep Cloudcart categories current with revised catalog plans
Category names and descriptions can change during planning. Notis can apply clear revisions from an updated Drive plan to the identified Cloudcart category.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Update Category
Tool to update an existing category. use when you need to modify category details after reviewing its current values.
Why this helps
Catalog revisions are easy to miss when the plan and the live category are maintained in different places.
- Keep category details in step with approved plans.
- Apply only the changes described in the source.
- Flag unclear category matches for review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Cloudcart once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis how the plan identifies the category and to apply only explicit revisions.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real revised catalog plan.
Questions about this workflow
What information should the plan provide?
It should identify the Cloudcart category and state the revised details. If the category cannot be identified confidently, the automation should report the issue for review.
Will this change product assignments?
No. The available category update action updates category details; product assignment is not listed as an available action.

Create Order
Tool to create a new order. use after assembling customer id, cart items, and optional addresses/payment info.
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.
