Move vendor onboarding from Drive into Cloudcart

Vendor details often arrive in a document before anyone adds them to the store. Notis can create a vendor from a complete onboarding brief and report gaps for review.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

Create Vendor

Tool to create a new vendor via cloudcart api. use when adding a new brand or partner entity to your store.

Why this helps

Vendor setup creates extra admin when business details must be copied from onboarding documents into the catalog system.

  • Reduce copying vendor details between apps.
  • Avoid creating a vendor from incomplete information.
  • Keep onboarding progress visible in run reports.

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 to create a vendor from new onboarding briefs only when the required vendor details are present.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real vendor brief.

Questions about this workflow

What vendor details are required?

Use the details your Cloudcart vendor setup requires, and include them in the brief. Have Notis flag missing information instead of filling it in.

Will it update existing vendors too?

This workflow creates a vendor from a new brief. If the brief concerns an existing vendor, have Notis report that for review rather than creating a duplicate.

ActionInstant

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.
