Start a CodeREADr scanning service from a new Drive procedure

Add a procedure to Drive and have Notis use its contents to create a matching CodeREADr service.

Trigger

File Created

Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.

Action

Create CodeREADr Service

Tool to create a new workflow configuration (service) for scanning tasks. Use after obtaining a valid API key when registering a new Service.

Why this helps

Turning each new procedure into a configured scanning service means rereading documents and rebuilding setup by hand.

  • Reduce repeated setup work when new procedures arrive.
  • Keep the service configuration grounded in the procedure's actual instructions.
  • Receive a run report when the service creation needs review.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and CodeREADr once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named for creating CodeREADr services from new SOPs.
  • 3Tell Notis: when a new procedure appears in Drive, read it and create a CodeREADr service that reflects its scanning task; ask me for missing details.
  • 4Pick Google Drive File Created as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real procedure and review the created service.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a service for every new Drive file?

It can run on each File Created event. State in your instruction which procedures should result in a service, and review the run report if a file lacks enough detail.

Will Notis invent service settings that the procedure does not include?

The instruction can tell Notis to ask for missing details rather than assume them.

Configure CodeREADr Connector

Helper to guide configuring the CodeREADr Connector for Google Sheets. There is no public API to programmatically create connector configurations. This tool validates your API connectivity (optional) and returns clear steps to proceed via the Google Sheets Add-on UI: https://www.codereadr.com/knowledgebase/codereadr-connector-add-on/

TriggerPolling

Configure Picking, Delivery & Receiving App

Tool to configure the complete picking, delivery, and receiving workflow. Use when setting up scan workflow endpoints for an existing CodeREADr service.

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.

TriggerPolling

Configure CodeREADr Postback URL

Tool to configure a real-time postback URL for a CodeREADr service. Use when you need to set up or modify scan forwarding for an existing service.

ActionInstant

File Updated
