Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Docugenerate. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Docugenerate actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Generate documents from template
Tool to generate document(s) from a template by merging JSON data or uploading a data file. Use when you need to programmatically produce one or more documents and receive metadata including a download URL.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Generate documents as ZIP
Tool to bulk generate multiple documents into a ZIP archive. Use when you need a batch of docs packaged as ZIP.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Generate document with attachments
Tool to generate a PDF with embedded attachments. Use when you need to bundle extra files into the PDF output.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Generate document with merge
Tool to generate a PDF and append additional PDF files. Use when you need to merge extra pages into a generated document.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
Update Document
Tool to update a document's metadata. Use when renaming an existing document after confirming the document ID.
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.
Get or list templates
Tool to retrieve or list existing templates. Use when needing template IDs and metadata before making updates or generating documents.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Update Template
Tool to update a template’s file and settings. Use after confirming the template ID and desired inputs.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
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.
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.
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.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.

NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
