Find the Cloudinary folder that matches a new Drive brief

A new brief lands in Drive. Notis checks Cloudinary folders for the matching campaign or project name and reports the best match.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

Search Folders

Tool to search asset folders with filtering, sorting, and pagination. use when you need to locate specific folders by name, path, or creation date.

Why this helps

Finding the right asset folder means switching apps and searching by hand every time a brief arrives.

  • Locate likely asset destinations from the brief name
  • Reduce app switching during campaign intake
  • Surface when no matching folder is found

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Cloudinary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Cloudinary folders using the new brief's project or campaign name and report the closest match.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real brief and confirm the folder result is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this upload the brief to Cloudinary?

No. This workflow searches Cloudinary folders and reports a likely destination. The available Cloudinary actions do not include uploading assets.

What if the brief does not name a campaign?

Ask Notis to report that it could not identify a likely folder, rather than guessing.

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.
