Composio Scholar Search

Scholar api allows you to scrape results from a google scholar search query. the scholarsearch class performs an academic search using the composio scholar search api, academic papers and scholarly articles. it uses the google scholar search engine through the serp api to fetch relevant academic information based on the input query.

Why this helps

Keeping up with relevant academic work takes repeated searches that are easy to postpone when the week gets busy.

  • Put a recurring Scholar search on the calendar.
  • Keep research topics together with the notes that inform them.
  • Receive academic search results without restarting the query manually.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Composio search once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis which Drive notes or research topics to use for a Scholar search and how to summarize relevant results.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real research topic and review the returned papers.

Questions about this workflow

Does the schedule automatically choose research topics?

No. Provide the topics in your instruction or identify the Drive notes Notis should use, subject to the content available to the automation.

Does Scholar Search provide full papers?

The search returns academic results. Access to full text depends on the result and its source.

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.
