Extract Product Details from Drive Query Matches
Let your existing Drive query surface the product research files that are ready for structured extraction.
Trigger
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Action
Diffbot Get Product
Tool to extract product information such as specifications, prices, availability, and reviews. use when you need structured product data including specs, pricing, and reviews.
Why this helps
Product research files can be hard to keep up with when useful candidates are mixed into a busy Drive.
- Use an existing Drive query to identify relevant new files.
- Extract available product specifications, prices and availability from their URLs.
- Keep product research moving without manually checking Drive for new matches.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Diffbot once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named Extract Products from Drive Query Matches.
- 3Tell Notis to read product listing URLs from each matching file and use Diffbot Get Product to return available details.
- 4Choose New File Matching Query as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real matching file containing a public product URL.

Diffbot Analyze
Tool to automatically determine a page's content type and route it to the appropriate extraction api. use when you have only a url and need diffbot to choose the right extractor.

Get Article Data
Tool to extract information from articles, including authors, publication dates, and images. use when you need structured metadata from a web article url.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Get Discussion Thread
Tool to extract threads of content from forums, comment sections, and review pages. use when you need structured discussion data from web pages after identifying the discussion url.
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.
Diffbot Get Event
Tool to extract event details from web pages. use when you need structured event data such as venue, date, and description.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
