Move approved config-only releases forward
Approved configuration releases can still get stuck in a handoff. Notis can read a clear release request in Drive and start the DeployHQ config-only deployment.
Trigger
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Action
Create Config File Deployment
Tool to create a new config file deployment for a project. Use when you need to deploy only configuration files to a server or server group without deploying code changes.
Why this helps
A configuration change may be approved, but the actual release step waits for someone to move between tools.
- Act on documented config release requests
- Reduce delay between approval and deployment
- Keep deployment runs visible in reports
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and DeployHQ once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create a new automation in Automations, New Automation, and write its name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to initiate a config file deployment only when a new request clearly says it is approved and identifies the intended project and destination.
- 4Choose the Google Drive File Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real approved config release request.
Questions about this workflow
Will this deploy code as well as configuration?
The selected DeployHQ action creates a deployment of config files only. It does not deploy code changes.
What if the request does not clearly show approval?
The instruction should require clear approval and report requests that do not contain it instead of initiating a deployment.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to DeployHQ. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
DeployHQ actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Delete Command
Tool to delete a command from a specified project. Use when you need to remove an SSH command from a project's configuration.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Delete Project

Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)

Delete Build Cache File

Delete Excluded File Rule
Tool to delete an existing excluded file rule from a project. Use when you need to remove an excluded file pattern from deployment configuration.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Delete Server Group
Tool to delete a server group from a project using the DeployHQ API. Use when you need to remove a server group from deployment configuration.
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.
Delete Template
Tool to delete a template by its unique permalink. Use when you need to permanently remove a template from DeployHQ.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Get Projects
