Trigger

Action
Get Non-Profit by EIN
Tool to retrieve information about a non-profit organization by ein. use after confirming the correct nine-digit ein.
Why this helps
Verifying a charity identifier adds another lookup step when updating giving records.
- Look up an EIN already present in the updated file.
- Receive nonprofit information alongside the automation report.
- Avoid manually switching from a giving record to a charity lookup.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Daffy once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that looks up the nine-digit EIN stated in an updated file and reports the returned nonprofit information.
- 3Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real updated file containing a confirmed nine-digit EIN.
Questions about this workflow
Will it determine the EIN if the file does not have one?
No. The lookup requires the correct nine-digit EIN. Supply it in the file before the trigger runs.
Does a returned nonprofit record verify every detail?
It provides information returned by Daffy for that EIN. Review it against your giving requirements before acting.

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.
