Why this helps
Review requests and signing templates can live in separate tools, making it easy to lose the next step.
- Bring template inventory into a review prompted by a document comment.
- Reduce context switching during document follow-up.
- Use the run report to keep the review visible.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Drive and Docuseal once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Docuseal template list when a relevant comment is added and summarize the options in the run report; state how relevance should be determined.
- 4Pick the Google Drive Comment Added trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real comment and confirm the template list and report are useful.

Get Template
Tool to retrieve details of a specific template by its unique identifier. use when you need to fetch template metadata by 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.
