Keep deployment config changes in sync

Config edits often live in a document before they reach deployment. Let Notis review the changed Drive file and update the corresponding DeployHQ configuration.

Trigger

File Updated

Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.

Action

Create Config File

Tool to create a new config file in a DeployHQ project. Use when you need to add a configuration file that will be deployed to specified servers.

Why this helps

A config document can be updated while the DeployHQ version stays stale, leaving someone to notice and reconcile the difference.

  • Carry config changes into the deployment workflow
  • Reduce manual re-entry of reviewed settings
  • Receive a report when a config update runs

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Drive and DeployHQ once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and write its name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review changed deployment config files and create or update the corresponding DeployHQ config file using the file contents.
  • 4Choose the Google Drive File Updated trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real config document update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this automatically determine which DeployHQ config file to update?

The prompt can ask Notis to identify the intended project and config from the available information. Include those details in the Drive document when they are not otherwise available.

Can it handle any Drive file format?

Use a file whose content Notis can read and whose configuration details are clear enough to interpret. Validate with a real example.

Delete Server Group

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.
