Check Datascope exports after a Drive report update
A changed report can trigger a quick check of recently generated Datascope exports.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
List Last Generated Files
Tool to retrieve all generated files (PDFs, Excel) from a specific date range. Use when you need to access recently generated files within the last 90 days. Date format is MM/DD/YYYY.
Why this helps
Teams can lose track of whether the latest field data export has been generated or shared alongside an updated report.
- Make export review part of the document update routine.
- See generated PDFs and spreadsheets for a specified date range.
- Help the team spot whether a fresh export may be needed.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Datascope once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list Datascope files generated within a specified date range when the relevant Drive report changes and summarize the available files.
- 4Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real report update and verify the date range and listed files.
Questions about this workflow
Can this action generate a new report?
No. It lists files already generated in Datascope for a date range. The workflow can report that no matching file appears, so someone can decide whether to generate one.
What date format does the file lookup use?
The Datascope action expects dates in MM/DD/YYYY format, within its supported range of the last 90 days.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Datascope. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Datascope actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Location
Tool to create a new location in DataScope with geographic coordinates. Use when you need to register a physical location with name and code identifiers.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get All Answers V2
Tool to retrieve last answers from Datascope forms (limit 200 per request). Use when you need to fetch form submissions with optional filtering by form, user, date range, or location. Supports pagination via offset parameter for retrieving additional batches.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Get All Answers With Metadata
Tool to retrieve all answers with metadata from the DataScope platform. Returns up to 600 form answers with form metadata, user information, timestamps, and GPS coordinates. Use when you need to fetch submission data with filtering options by form, user, date range, or location.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Get all list elements
Tool to retrieve all items from a specific metadata list in Datascope. Use when you need to fetch all elements belonging to a particular list type (products, locations, customers, etc.).
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Get All Locations
Tool to retrieve all locations configured in the DataScope system. Use when you need to access location data including addresses, coordinates, and company associations.
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.
Get Last Tickets
Tool to retrieve the last 5 tickets (findings) from the DataScope system. Use when you need to view recent tickets or findings.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Get List Element
Tool to retrieve a specific element from a metadata list by type and ID. Use when you need to fetch detailed information about a specific list element such as locations, products, or other metadata objects.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
Get Ticket Types
Tool to retrieve available ticket types (findings types) from the DataScope system. Use when you need to access the list of ticket type configurations.
