Summarize poll rankings from matching files
Keep rankings research moving by turning a matching Drive file into a weekly poll lookup.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Rankings Polls
Tool to retrieve weekly human/computer poll rankings. Use after specifying season year and optional week.
Why this helps
Ranking notes can sit untouched while you manually find the right poll data and week.
- Start from a file that matches your existing Drive query.
- Use the file's season and week context for a rankings lookup.
- Receive a concise summary instead of another research detour.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and College football data once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to read matching new files for season and week context, retrieve poll rankings, and summarize the requested teams or poll.
- 4Pick the New File Matching Query trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real matching rankings note.
Questions about this workflow
What context should a matching file include?
Include the season and, when relevant, the week and poll or teams of interest.
Can it compare rankings over time?
It can summarize rankings returned for the requested context. If you want a comparison, specify the weeks or baseline to compare.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to College football data. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
College football data actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Advanced Box Score
Tool to retrieve advanced box score metrics for a single college football game. Use after selecting a specific game to access team- and player-level advanced analytics.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Advanced Game Stats
Tool to retrieve advanced team metrics at the game level. Use when detailed offensive and defensive metrics (success rates, explosiveness, havoc) are needed.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Advanced Season Stats by Team
Tool to retrieve advanced season metrics aggregated by team and season. Use after selecting season and team filters.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Betting Lines
Tool to fetch betting lines and totals by game and provider. Use when you need current or historical betting line data filtered by specific criteria.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Composite Team Talent
Tool to fetch composite team talent rankings by season. Use when you need 247Sports team talent composites for specified seasons.
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.
Conference Memberships History
Tool to retrieve historical conference memberships for teams, including years active and division. Use when you need to trace a team's conference history over time.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
