Run a saved Contentful query on a recurring schedule
If you already have a registered persisted query, let Notis run it on a regular schedule and make the returned content easier to review.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Useful saved queries often depend on someone remembering to run them and interpret the results.
- Make an existing persisted query part of a routine
- Reduce repetitive manual query runs
- Turn returned data into a readable report
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Contentful graphql in the Notis portal and make sure the persisted query is registered.
- 2Create an automation for a scheduled Contentful report.
- 3Tell Notis which persisted query hash and variables to use and how to summarize the returned data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger and choose where reports should go.
- 5Test with one real run and verify the query results.
Questions about this workflow
Does this register the persisted query?
No. The action runs a persisted query by its SHA256 hash. Register the query first and include full query text on its first call if required.
Can I change variables between runs?
Yes, if the variables are included in the instruction and the persisted query supports them.

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

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.
