Keep Contract Changes Connected to Signing Status
A contract changes in Drive. Notis fetches the corresponding Docnify document so you can see whether signatures are still pending.
Trigger
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Action
Get Document
Tool to fetch a specific document by its ID. Use when you need to view a document's current state and metadata.
Why this helps
A revised contract can make old signing status easy to misread, leaving founders unsure which version is moving forward.
- Pair a file update with a current Docnify status check.
- Make version follow-up easier to see.
- Keep the review and next step in one report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Docnify once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe how to identify the related Docnify document.
- 3Pick the Google Drive File Updated trigger.
- 4Choose a report channel for run results.
- 5Test with one real update and confirm the document match.
Questions about this workflow
Will the workflow update the Docnify document?
No. It fetches the document state for review. Use the report to decide whether a separate document action is needed.
What if Notis cannot identify the matching document?
Have the automation report the missing or ambiguous identifier so you can resolve the match before relying on the status.

Delete document recipient
Tool to remove a recipient from a document. Use after verifying document and recipient IDs to revoke access.
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.
