Schedule a review of Contentful entries and their Drive sources
Keep source-backed content review from relying on memory. Run a scheduled Contentful query and get a checklist of entries to compare with your Drive materials.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
Why this helps
Without a regular review cue, teams may not notice when CMS content deserves a source check.
- Create a predictable review prompt
- Focus attention on entries selected by your query
- Keep comparison work visible in a report
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Contentful graphql once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for a scheduled CMS source review.
- 3Tell Notis which Contentful entries or scope to query and how to prepare a checklist for comparison with the Drive sources you provide.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the query returns reviewable entries.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow know every source file for an entry?
Only if that relationship is present in the available data or you provide it in the instruction. Otherwise the report should state that the source is missing.
Does the schedule publish content?
No. This workflow uses a Content API query to prepare a human review checklist.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Contentful graphql. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Contentful graphql actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get CMA Token
Tool to retrieve a Contentful Management API (CMA) access token. Use when making CMA calls to ensure valid authorization.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
GraphQL Content API Persisted Query
Tool to execute a persisted GraphQL query via its SHA256 hash. Use after registering a query hash to run cached queries by hash. On first call include full query text; thereafter invoke with only hash and variables.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
GraphQL Content API Query
Tool to execute a GraphQL query against a specified space and environment. Use when fetching Contentful content via GraphQL after obtaining or providing a valid token.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
