Keep Cults research in step with your updated brief

When your brief changes, rerun the related Cults search with its current details.

Trigger

File Updated

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

Action

Cults GraphQL POST

Tool to execute a GraphQL operation against the Cults API. Use when you need to fetch or mutate data via the Cults GraphQL endpoint.

Why this helps

Research can become stale after edits, leaving decisions based on an older version of a brief.

  • Revisit Cults model results after a brief changes.
  • Summarize the search against the file's latest available details.
  • Reduce the chance of relying on outdated research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and Cults once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the updated file's available details to search Cults models and report relevant results.
  • 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real brief update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this compare old and new file versions?

The trigger indicates a file was updated. The listed Cults action supports GraphQL operations; a before-and-after comparison requires both versions to be available to Notis.

Can I ask it to search using the whole file?

You can ask Notis to use available file details. Results depend on what Notis can access from the file.

TriggerPolling

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.
