Collect query-matched Drive resources
Relevant files can surface in the Curated collection as soon as they match your Drive query.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Create Collected Link
Tool to create a collected link for a publication. use when you want to add a new link (with url, title, etc.) to a publication's collection.
Why this helps
A saved Drive search can find the right resources, but someone still has to transfer each one into the newsletter collection.
- Move query-matched resources into the collection for later editorial review.
- Preserve available titles and context with each link.
- Reduce repeat searching when assembling newsletter material.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Curated once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that adds a collected link for each matching file when a usable URL is available.
- 3Pick the Google Drive New File Matching Query trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel, then test with one real matching file.
Questions about this workflow
Can the action attach a Drive file directly?
The listed action creates a collected link. The instruction should use an available file URL, and the run can report if one is missing.
How do I define the Drive search?
This trigger preserves the legacy query configuration. Select the trigger and use the available query settings in the Notis flow.

List Categories
Tool to list all categories for a publication. use after you have the publication id and need to fetch its categories.
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.
List Issues
Tool to list all issues for a publication. use after you have the publication id and need to fetch its issues (supports pagination).
