Check team records after a policy update

When a policy document changes, have Notis retrieve the Connecteam user list and summarize the review context for your chosen report channel.

Trigger

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

Action

Get Users

Tool to retrieve a list of all users associated with your account. use when you need to fetch and filter user data.

Why this helps

Policy changes can sit in a document while founders forget to check which team records or people need follow-up.

  • Tie a document change to a timely team review
  • Bring Connecteam user information into the review
  • Surface follow-up in a chosen run report channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Connecteam once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3Tell Notis to retrieve Connecteam users when the policy document changes and summarize any review context it can support.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real policy update and check that the summary uses available information.

Questions about this workflow

Will it identify exactly which users are affected?

Only if the updated document and returned user data provide enough information to determine that. Supply any missing criteria in your instruction.

Does this update Connecteam user records?

No. The selected action retrieves user data. Any recommended changes are presented for review.

Can I trigger it from a new document instead?

Yes. The Google Drive File Created event is also available, though this workflow is designed around an existing policy document changing.

Get Custom Field Categories

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.
