Examples

Ways Notis can move work from Google Drive to DeployHQ

View example

Turn Drive project requests into DeployHQ projects

Create a DeployHQ project when a new Drive file contains a clear project setup request.

View example

Keep DeployHQ config files aligned with Drive

Use edits to a Drive deployment config document to create or refresh the matching DeployHQ config file.

View example

Apply requested config revisions from Drive comments

When a comment requests a clear change to a deployment config, have Notis update the relevant DeployHQ config file.

View example

Deploy approved config files from Drive requests

When a new Drive file clearly requests an approved config-only release, have Notis initiate a DeployHQ config file deployment.

View example

Add release exclusions from matching Drive files

Use a Drive query for release notes or exclusion requests to add a clearly specified excluded file rule in DeployHQ.

View example

Review DeployHQ deployment history when a plan is shared

When Drive sharing permissions are added to a deployment plan, retrieve the related DeployHQ deployment history for a concise run report.

View example

Review upcoming DeployHQ releases against Drive plans

On a schedule, retrieve upcoming DeployHQ deployments and compare their details with deployment plans in Drive for a concise review.

View example

Summarize a release range from a webhook request

Send a release overview request to Notis and have it analyze DeployHQ commits between two supplied references.

Supported Triggers and Actions

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
