Audit Control D rules after a policy file is removed
Make policy cleanup prompt a check of the related custom rules.
Trigger
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Action
List Custom Rules for Profile
Tool to retrieve custom rules associated with a specific profile. Use after confirming the profile ID. Omit `folder_id` to list rules in the root folder.
Why this helps
Removing an old policy document does not make its related DNS rules easy to find for review.
- Prompt review when a policy source disappears
- Bring current custom rules into one report
- Avoid assuming that deletion means rules should be removed
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Control D once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to list custom rules for the specified profile and report that a human should decide whether any rules need changes.
- 4Pick the File Deleted or Trashed trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real policy file removal and review the listed rules.
Questions about this workflow
Will it delete rules when the policy file is removed?
No. It lists rules for review. A removed document alone does not establish that any rule should be deleted.
How does it know which profile to inspect?
The profile identifier must be provided in the file context or automation instruction.

Delete Profile Rule in Folder
Tool to delete a specific custom rule within a folder. Use after confirming profile_id, rule_id, and folder_id.
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.
Delete Profile Schedule
Tool to delete a specific schedule within a profile. Use after confirming profile_id and schedule_id.
File Updated
